Donald Trump doesn’t correct birthers, but how is that any worse than the GOP’s standard climate change pandering?
Yes, this is exactly what I want the the sensible Right in Australia (hopefully, in the form of Malcolm Turnbull) to do - to start telling those on their side the truth about how wrong they are (and how stupid, in most cases) on matters such as climate change, and certain economic tropes (such as "reducing taxes always works"; "Keynesian economics is a crock".)
Update: here's Krugman's acerbic take on the second GOP debate.
