As his approval ratings sink, the former president is growing more and more unhinged—and more willing to indulge his most dangerous followers.

A 50-year-old law allows candidates—but not fundraising groups—to get discounted TV ad rates in the 60 days before the election. What does that mean for the home stretch of their campaigns?

An interview with Max Chafkin, author of “The Contrarian: Peter Thiel and Silicon Valley’s Pursuit of Power,” on how J.D. Vance and Blake Masters came to be part of Thiel’s political project

The tech billionaire wants to remake the Republican Party—and America. But Blake Masters and J.D. Vance are lagging in the polls, and struggling to raise money.

The Buckeye State has grown redder and redder. The Democratic congressman could reverse that—and start to revive the Democrats’ working-class identity.

The former president’s latest foray into midterm election kingmaking is hilariously edifying.

Trump’s recent losses are heartening. But that doesn’t mean a post-Trump GOP will be good for America.

The vile conspiracy that led to a mass shooting in Buffalo has been normalized by leaders on the right.

J.D. Vance earned Trump’s endorsement by renouncing his anti-Trump past. The Senate candidate’s comeback victory in Ohio’s Republican primary will only intensify the stampede to kiss the king’s ring.

J.D. Vance is about as authentically Ohioan as a bar of Ghirardelli chocolate. Alas, only one endorsement mattered.

Ohio’s primaries are next Tuesday. The putative Democratic Senate candidate says he can win because the Republicans are extremists and radicals.

Yes, the former president is vain, and the House minority leader crossed him. But the briefly disloyal Republican may yet be spared.

Democrats have a path to keeping control of the Senate, but it’s a treacherous, multistate tightrope walk that they’ll have to execute perfectly.

Trump and allies like J.D. Vance and Tucker Carlson may have overestimated the appeal of the former president’s isolationism.

Democratic squabbling and inertia have garnered most of the headlines. But the GOP is an unholy mess.

The billionaire is backing far-right Republicans who are anti-democracy, anti-China, and pro-crypto.

The “Hillbilly Elegy” author spent the first week of his campaign apologizing for his past criticism of Trump. He’s going to have to grovel even more if he hopes to defeat the Forever Trumpers he’s up against.

Aspiring Republicans once had to sign Grover Norquist’s no-new-taxes pledge. Now they must be devoted to the former president’s perfidies.

I am a fan of “Hillbilly Elegy”—even the movie!—but I can no longer admire the plutocratic fraud that its author has become.

Josh Hawley and J.D. Vance are pushing a tax credit for parents. They’re being drowned out by the party’s infighting and regressive legislation against protesters and trans people.
