President-elect Donald Trump’s win last week in Pennsylvania was always right in front of you if you were objectively listening to the concerns of the people and the data showing the most important, misread trend of all: The Republican Party had now become the party of work.

More than 67,000 delegates are in Baku, Azerbaijan, to attend the United Nations’ annual climate summit. Brazil alone sent nearly 2,000 people, and Turkey more than 1,800.
