He’s back.

If there was any doubt about the popularity of Donald Trump in the conservative movement, it was erased for good with his Sunday CPAC appearance.

In the tradition of Trump rallies he entered the hall in Orlando to the “God Bless the USA” song that is now a virtual GOP anthem, courtesy of Lee Greenwood. He was received by CPAC-ers with a raucous, thunderous standing ovation.

He began this way:

Well thank you very much CPAC. Do you miss me yet? Do you miss me? A lot of things going on to so many wonderful

February has come and gone, and President Biden still has not delivered a State of the Union address. He spent the weekend cooped up in Delaware, remaining invisible, as is his wont.

Sometimes a television series can’t decide what it wants to be when it grows up — or whether it wants to grow up at all. Case in point: Bridgerton, now on Netflix. One knows from the previews that it will be awful, but curiosity lures — just how awful?
