The Fifth Column
Art Laffer did more MAGA contortions than Romney, but does the public care?
The presidential election is potentially more volatile than it's given credit for currently. Most people have no idea what they're talking about when they talk about it. Mike Pence dropped out of the Republican debate three days ago, but no one seems to care. Trump has a way of viewing politics that is both funny and ironic. Mitt Romney's new book, 'Romney Reckoning', reveals his flawed character and his pursuit of power. Many Republicans who once criticized Trump eventually bent and kissed the ring. The MAGA universe is full of commentators who were once anti-Trump but later changed their views. They had to pretend that they were not free traders and change their views on fundamental issues. Melania Trump made a public appearance with her husband for the first time in months at a Halloween party. In the end, the conversation shifted to attending Heidi Klum's party dressed as Seal.
