Dear Donald Trump
Dear Donald Trump, I admit that I did not vote for you and have never liked you. Since you became the President of the United States, my President, I have hoped for you and wished you well. I did not wish for you to fail to prove that you are an idiot. I did not hope for you to commit a blunder so that you would be laughed out of the White House. Unfortunately, you still did those things. What is worse, you did those things in a way only a narcissistic, pathological liar could have.

Two Sides
My “Two Sides” project will be discussing ex-president Barack Obama. In August 4,1961 Obama was born. Obama took the office in January 20, 2009 and left in January 20, 2017. He was seen by many as one of the best presidents to take charge in the US. People love him, for instance, for his kindness and his generosity, like when he cried for 20 children who died in Sandy Hook. People really connected with him at that moment. But on the other hand many people didn’t like him, and some even “blam[ed] Obama for the rising of ISIS” (Quora). People might hate him and people also like him. Some people see him as a great influence and a great president, and others always worry about the mistakes he made. But even amazing presidents make mistakes. Now let’s go into more detail on this.

Get a Dog Donald
Dear Donald You may consider me impertinent to offer you advice, but as you have appointed your own daughter, Ivanka, and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, as presidential advisors, it would seem that qualifications and experience, in your opinion, are not prerequisites for the task of advising a president. Ivanka’s official title is “Assistant to the President”. That is the highest staff title held by anyone in the White House. Even your Chief of Staff is an assistant to the president. Jared Kushner’s title is, “Special Adviser to the President”.

The Pence Record
Since there is a reasonable possibility that Michael Richard Pence will be the next President of the United States, it seems sensible to take a look at what he has being doing as Vice President. During the last three years, Pence has broken 13 ties in his duty as President of the Senate. That ranks Pence seventh on the list of VPs who cast tie-breaking votes, the most since Schuyler Colfax (with 18), Ulysses Grant’s Vice President from 1869 to 1873. Like Pence, Colfax was from Indiana.

Black Votes, Not Trump Votes
The Democratic nominee for 2020 should work hard for black voters and not at all for Trump voters. The latest poll from Iowa shows former Vice President Joe Biden in the lead for the Democratic nomination for president. It's still very early, and this result is likely a function of name recognition. After Obama, Biden is the most famous Democrat in the country. He did just spend two terms as vice president to Obama, who gets criticized from both sides, but did win election twice and so was a successful president on that score.

Watch Kamala Harris. Now Keep Watching
Don’t fall asleep on Kamala Harris. The Democratic California senator, who jumped out front as a declared candidate for the presidency, has been quietly going about her business since her splashy Oakland campaign rollout in January, when Harris both announced her candidacy, and set the emotional bar for the campaign–a deft blend of ebullience and duty–that no other Democrat in the race has matched yet.

The President Is Tired—or Tiring
A recent story indicates that Trump's campaign staff is worried about the 2020 reelection effort because the candidate, at 72, is starting to show his age and is tired. His campaign realizes that he has lost a lot of support in some of the states that helped him win in 2016, and worries that he may not have the energy for campaigning that he mustered that time.
