Hell hath no fury like a president with plummeting approval ratings who can't get a dime for his border wall and has no idea which person with ties to his campaign will be indicted next.
On Sunday night, President Trump went after two of his favorite targets on Twitter with a particular vengeance: Amazon's Jeff Bezos and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). Bezos and his wife, MacKenzie Bezos, announced last week that they are divorcing, and the National Enquirer has had a field day sensationalizing the story. The thrice-married president tweeted: "So sorry to hear the news about Jeff Bozo being taken down by a competitor whose reporting, I understand, is far more accurate than the reporting in his lobbyist newspaper, the Amazon Washington Post. Hopefully the paper will soon be placed in better & more responsible hands!"

And Americans will not go gentle into that good night." In the same column, Buchanan stated that the "Democratic Party is hostile to white men" and "the more multiracial, multiethnic, multicultural, multilingual America becomes — the less it looks like Ronald Reagan's America — the more dependably Democratic it will become."
