With ‘Never-Trump’-ers still convinced he is Hitler and ‘Trump’-ers questioning their reality at his recent flip-floppery, many in the country are asking why should we support this President (even as his approval ratings rise with each warmongering threat).

By Jeff Mason and Doina Chiacu | WASHINGTON WASHINGTON President Donald Trump’s administration on Wednesday denied being misleading about a U.S. carrier strike group’s push towards the Korean peninsula, saying it never gave an arrival date and that the ships were still on their way.

Indeed, […]

April 19, 2017 by: Vinay Pande and Gerald Lucas The most prominent beneficiary of the so-called Trump trade has been equities, with total returns of 10.5 per cent from the S&P 500 and 10 per cent from the MSCI All-Country World Index since the US election.
