This is the week that the former president’s epic legal misadventures begin. It’s hard to imagine his coming out unscathed.

The former president’s legal entanglements aren’t his superpower. He’s taken a commanding lead in the primary because he faces weak opponents from a feckless political party.

A growing number of Independents—and Republicans—are concerned by the former president's handling of classified information.

The big crowd in Miami for Trump’s arraignment failed to materialize. But his foot soldiers are at work across the country.

The party is sitting on its hands instead of pressing the case that the Republican Party’s leader is a brazen criminal.
