The anti-Semites holding Jews responsible for manipulating American foreign policy need to look elsewhere. “Roughly four-in-ten (42%) [U.S. Jews] say they think Trump is favoring the Israelis too much, while a similar share (47%) say he is striking the right balance between the Israelis and Palestinians. … Among evangelical Protestants, 72% say they think Trump strikes the right balance between the Israelis and Palestinians."

Former vice president Joe Biden is holding a strong lead for now, according to another poll. “Biden’s best state is South Carolina, where he has 48% support (36% in February), followed by [Iowa] with 35% (25% in February), and New Hampshire at 34% (22% in February). This represents a double-digit boost in all three states over the past three months. After Biden, we find Bernie Sanders in second in all three states, in the low double-digits. Pete Buttigieg, who was not included in our first round, finished third in all three states with support ranging from 5% in South Carolina to 11% in Iowa.” Sanders won New Hampshire with 60 percent of the vote in 2016, remember?

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) is holding mainstream media’s feet to the fire: “There has been a conversation by pundits about ‘electability’ and ‘who can speak to the Midwest.’ But when they say that, they usually put the Midwest in a simplistic box and a narrow narrative. And too often, their definition of the Midwest leaves people out. It leaves out people in this room who helped build cities like Detroit. It leaves out working women who are on their feet all day — many of them working without equal pay. And the conversation too often suggests certain voters will only vote for certain candidates regardless of whether their ideas will lift up all our families.” She’s right, and too many women think this way as well.

Republicans try holding off the inevitable by suppressing voting. It’s a losing strategy. “Trump’s strategy of single-mindedly courting members of the Silent Generation with issues such as immigration, the evils of socialism, and campus free speech is not a long-term solution for the Republican Party. The more the GOP belittles the preferences of younger voters, the more it risks forging them into a left-wing bloc. In the 2020s, the Silent Generation will fade from the scene. This will happen at precisely the same time that history suggests younger, more left-wing voters will start to vote at higher rates.”
