In the meantime, as discussed on the excellent conservative Federalist Radio Hour, no one has any time for discussing substantive issues. We’re all too caught up in the latest Trump tempest, myself included. Here it is, August 10, and I haven’t posted one thing about the list of issues I want to discuss on this blog: abortion and its association with the so-called “women’s rights” movement, NATO, the nature of religious freedom, the importance of the Supreme Court, the source of conspiracy theories, and (this is a bit self-indulgent, but bear with me) the rise and baffling fall of Dinesh D’Souza. To name the top topics. I’m really interested in all of these subjects, but I keep getting distracted by the latest outrage coming from Trump. And now, I understand, he’s agreed to the three debates. This is going to be so embarrassing of an exhibition that I think we’re all going to have to hide our heads under the sofa pillows.
