The Wall Street Journal exists for one reason: to enrich the rich. Cheap labor is the ticket to wealth. Labor is cheap when there are more workers than jobs. One way to get more workers than jobs is to let people pour into this country illegally. Hence, the Journal's obsession with open borders. Sell out the country and its people so as to enrich the rich. Now Kimberley Strassel, who has opposed Donald Trump every step of the way, has the gall to advise him on how to win the election. Trump got where he is without her. He should tell her (and her ilk) to take a hike.

Here are highlights from today's stage of the Criterium du Dauphine (in France), which many riders use as a tune-up for the Tour de France.

You have the attitude of a winner.

Note from KBJ: What's the trick to writing fortunes? I think it's to flatter the recipient.

Why are journalists not covering this? (Thanks to John Sullivan for the link.)

The Texas Rangers just beat the Houston Astros to take the series, three games to one. The Rangers, who have the best record in the American League and the second-best record in Major League Baseball at 37-23 (behind the Chicago Cubs), have won six series in a row and nine of their past 10. This team continues to surprise me. I was delighted a year ago when the Rangers won the West Division title, after trailing the Astros for most of the season. I now believe that any team that makes the playoffs can win the World Series. In other words, once the playoffs begin, what happened during the regular season is irrelevant. The team that gets hot at the right time and has the best pitching will win. So far, the Rangers look like a playoff team.

To the Editor:

The Times’s absurd assertion, based on an A.P. poll, that Hillary Clinton has captured the Democratic nomination on the eve of Tuesday’s important primaries sends a crystal clear message to voters: The voices of superdelegates outweigh the voices of ordinary citizens, and if you do not support the presumptive nominee, you might as well not vote.

Such a message privileges the superdelegate, whose very role is contrary to the ideals of our democracy. To clarify: As of this writing, Hillary Clinton has not secured the nomination. The superdelegates who support her have not voted. These appointed individuals are free to change their minds between now and the Democratic Convention.

Note from KBJ: There was never a chance that Hillary Clinton would not win. The powers that be (including the New York Times) determined eight years ago that she was next in line. I expect Donald Trump to get lots of votes from angry supporters of Bernie Sanders.

Dog Eat Dog (1985). I own only two Joni Mitchell albums, one of them (Hejira) given to me as a gift many years ago. I have loved Dog Eat Dog for more than 30 years (not because of the lyrics, but because of the music).
