Con una económica boyante y el índice de desempleo más bajo en cincuenta años gracias a las políticas del presidente, da la impresión que los demócratas han concluido que esta es la única manera que tienen para retomar la Casa Blanca.

By Peter Baker WASHINGTON — For nine days, he had his finger on the trigger and threatened to pull.

Furthermore, their extreme rhetoric over the last several months demonstrates a willful underestimation of the grave challenges we are facing at the southern border just because it doesn’t fit their preferred political narrative.
