How many times have you heard me say, in this blog, that free trade has been a disaster for this country? The voters agreed. Free trade is welfare for the wealthy and powerful.

Barack Obama appointed only two Supreme Court justices—Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan—in his eight years in office. It could have been much worse.

Here is Scott Adams's take on yesterday's victory by Donald Trump. I hope you now understand what I have been saying all along, namely, that Donald Trump is five steps ahead of everyone else. He will be a great president. He is smart as a whip; he is compassionate; he has boundless energy (more than a man 30 years his junior); and he loves his country. It's not too late to get right with Donald.

To the Editor:

I have been active in American politics since I turned 18. I have knocked on many doors, talked to many people about whom they were voting for and why. The people I talked to never said Donald Trump’s name. Never. Were they embarrassed? Was he too controversial? Weren’t they proud of their decision?

Maybe this is why the polling was so wrong. Trump voters didn’t want to say they were voting for him. They’re angry and feel invisible. So they spoke through the ballot box.

Predictions: The first female president will be a Republican. The first black president will be a Republican. (By "black," I mean someone, such as Clarence Thomas and Ben Carson, who descended from slaves. Barack Obama is not black in this sense; he is the son of a white American woman and a Kenyan man.)

Donald J. Trump, 45th president of the United States of America.
