Trump News

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) has to impress an audience of one as much as he needs to win over voters in Tuesday's vice presidential debate, and a columnist suspects he'll imitate another "shouty" Yale Law School graduate who once faced a similar task.

The Ohio Republican will face off against Democratic rival Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) in the debate, and Daily Beast columnist Nell Scovell expects him to "go for the Trumpian emotional trifecta: playing the victim, spewing anger, and attacking women" – much like Supreme Court justice Brett Kavanaugh did during his confirmation hearings.

The New York Times has been flooded with angry letters from readers warning former President Donald Trump's rhetoric and behavior render him unfit to serve as commander in chief, a new editorial shows.

The Times published Tuesday a slew of letters to the editor in which readers condemn Trump's description of Vice President Kamala Harris as "mentally disabled" as both racist and unhinged.

Donald Trump responded to the worsening crisis in the Middle East with a lengthy comment about himself minutes before Iran launched missiles into Israel.

The former president's campaign issued a statement Tuesday that he shared on Truth Social blaming President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for the ballistic missile attack, which U.S. officials had warned was imminent, and insisted that his Democratic rivals were responsible for Israel's war in Gaza and a ground offensive in Lebanon.

Michael Cohen on Monday took his "unusual" case against former President Donald Trump to the nation's highest court, according to court records and reports.

Trump's former fixer demands the Supreme Court take up his appeal of his civil case contending the then-president had him thrown in jail because he had begun to write an unflattering book about his onetime client, court records show.

Donald Trump is again praising himself and taking full credit for killing Roe v. Wade and stripping women their constitutional right to abortion, and the Harris campaign quickly jumped on the ex-president's remarks.

Trump sat down with his former campaign manager Kellyanne Conway, who served as White House Senior Counselor to the President, for a Fox Nation interview this week.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump complained about speaking to a relatively small crowd at a recent rally in Wisconsin.

Trump admitted being angry about the rally during an interview with Fox Nation host Kellyanane Conway this week.

Former President Donald Trump asserted that the current U.S. education system was "mostly transgender" instead of "reading, writing, arithmetic."

During an interview on Fox Nation with host Kellyanne Conway, Trump defended his plan to disband the U.S. Department of Education.

Former President Donald Trump claimed he was "not allowed" to talk about the COVID-19 vaccine and Operation Warp Speed because he was a Republican candidate.

During an interview with Fox Nation this week, Trump told host Kellyanne Conway that he had the "greatest economy in history" until the pandemic.

A panel of undecided voters who spoke with the New York Times recently generally gave President Donald Trump strong marks for his handling of the American economy, but when asked to describe him using one or two words, they were often blunt and scathing of his character.

In the Times' focus group of swing-state voters, a Wisconsin voter named Aaron described Trump as "kind of a clown," a Michigan voter named Ken described him as an "idiot," and an Arizona voter named Stephanie went so far as to describe him as an "aspiring dictator."

Donald Trump was blasted on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Tuesday morning for telling a blatant lie that carries the risk of Hurricane Helene victims not seeking the help that they desperately need.

On Monday, while doing a photo-op tour of communities devastated by Hurricane Helene, Trump insisted President Joe Biden was denying aid to Georgia because of the state's Republican leadership which, in turn, led Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA) to tell reporters that the former president was dead wrong.

After showing clips of both Trump and Kemp, "Morning Joe" co-host Willie Geist was joined by Jonathan Lemire in calling out the former president for knowingly lying to score cheap political points.

"You know, Jonathan Lemire, this is particularly disgusting lie," Geist began. "When people there need help, suggesting that the White House and FEMA, because Democrats don't want Donald Trump to win, of course it all comes back to him, they're turning their backs on him.

"He's also suggested that the White House and this federal government is ignoring MAGA supporters in red counties," he added. "That's, of course, not true. Just not even in this moment of destruction and devastation and people needing clarity and help so badly, can't even put his ego and cheap insults aside in this moment."

"Rooting against the country is one of the themes from Donald Trump," Lemire interjected. "This is a particularly dangerous lie. If he is out there saying, 'Hey, the federal government is ignoring those impacted by the storm,' that may discourage those impacted by the storm from even seeking help. State and federal officials are saying, 'Look, we're here. reach out to us. we're trying to reach you and assist you in this time of need.' Donald Trump only thinking about himself."

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley's endorsement of Donald Trump as the Republican presidential nominee has not turned into a windfall of voters that the former president might have hoped for.

According to a report from Politico's Meridith McGraw, Lisa Kashinsky and Natalie Allison, a substantial number of supporters of the South Carolina Republican felt they had good reason to back her over Trump and her endorsement did little to change their minds.

Several Florida Democratic Party officials insist the Sunshine State is in play, and not just in the presidential race. As campaign cash is flooding the state, a Republican pollster finds both Donald Trump and Republican U.S. Senator Rick Scott with a tiny lead over their Democratic opponents, well with the margin of error.

"Trump leads Harris by 2.1%, and Scott leads Mucarsel-Powell by 0.8%," according to Victory Insights, which released the poll Monday. Trump is beating Harris 46.9% to 44.9%, with just over eight percent still undecided.
