Second Republican debate: GOP candidates at the debate should be asked about their drug policies

As the nation prepares for the second Republican presidential debate tonight, one of the more pressing topics that need to be answered concerns the drug crisis plaguing the nation.

The second Republican presidential debate will feature seven candidates vying for the GOP nomination for president, yet who is not at tonight’s debate will receive as much, if not more, attention than who is.

Declasse Donald: Who inflates his own wealth?

Former President Donald Trump’s lawyers will argue that he didn’t defraud anyone by vastly overstating the value of his assets, but that won’t diminish the enjoyment his critics derive from seeing Trump exposed, once again, as a con artist.
