- Editorial: Trumpworld vs. Clintonworld (“Mr. Trump seems to care very little about relations between nations. His arrogance is boundless on this issue, as it is on most subjects. He has boasted that he does not need foreign policy advisers because his own brain is sufficient to guide him. It is unclear, even now, whether he is listening to anyone.”)

- The Donald Trump Show (“…it was a showcase for the institutional failure of the Republican Party in the face of Trump’s assault. The party’s past presidents were absent, and many of its younger politicians also. The ones who did appear found varying ways to cover themselves in dishonor — some with pained, phoned-in endorsements, some with opportunistic zeal, and some by simply being good apparatchiks and squashing the last attempt at delegate dissent.”)
