Donald Trump's approval rating is 44%. Barack Obama's approval rating at the same point of his presidency (23 April 2012) was 45%.

Here is Kurt Schlichter's latest column.

Donald Trump’s claim that “when somebody’s the president of the United States, the authority is total” is appropriately timed, as it came just before Patriots Day. On the spot where on April 19, 1775, the local Minutemen began their march to Concord’s North Bridge, I have the honor daily of raising and lowering this country’s flag. The men gathered here on that day in 1775 were willing to give their lives to throw off the shackles of absolute rule, and despite Trump’s claim, we are not about to repeat history and allow another despot to ascend the throne.

Here is Ann Coulter's latest column.

A short response to the editorial from the Minneapolis Star Tribune published as an op-ed on April 11 (“Is Hydroxychloroquine a ‘Game Changer?’”). The final paragraph of this piece begins with “We hope Mr. Trump is proven right about hydroxychloroquine.”

Stop, right there! There is a fundamental risk to him having been proven right because he speaks from ignorance.

Suddenly then, President Donald Trump becomes the wise sage of popular medicine? Already he is assumed by many misguided folks to be the clairvoyant of climate change denial, the prophet of environmental pillage and the wizard of multilateral withdrawal. What follows is that he has sewn the seeds of mistrust in the broad spectrum of our scientific community. Why should medicine have an exemption?

I, too, hope he’s right. But I know that a broken clock is right twice a day. So may I offer some advice to the man who is as likely to take mine as anyone else’s? Mr. Trump, speak with as much executive authority as you like, and I will hold my tongue. But in matters of medicine, please keep your mouth shut.

Note from KBJ: Stop projecting your ignorance onto President Trump, Michael.

I have instructed the United States Navy to shoot down and destroy any and all Iranian gunboats if they harass our ships at sea.
