Putting aside the question of whether he will be inaugurated as president come January, is there any chance that Donald Trump will deport millions of undocumented immigrants from the United States? To anybody who knows very much about what’s actually going on in the American economy, the answer is no.
It’s one thing to have the fancypants people say that Donald Trump has vulgar taste: goldplated chairs that one commentator said “look like they belong at one of Saddam Hussein’s palaces”; a fondness for marble-and-gold home furnishings; a glitzy chandelier in the bathroom; garish excesses in Trump Tower and the Trump Princess yacht. That’s snobbery masked as sophistication.

E arlier this year, Democrats were outraged that Republicans – and the media – were focusing on Joe Biden’s advancing age and declining acuity. He’s fine, they insisted. It’s all partisan propaganda. The accusations are unfair.
DEAR HARRIETTE: My boyfriend is incredibly stingy. We get along well in many ways, but when it comes to money, he’s not what I expected. He never offers to pay for our dates. It’s not that I mind splitting the bill sometimes, but I’ve noticed that he never makes any effort to treat me, even on special occasions.
Dear Doctors: I’ve heard there’s a test that’s more accurate than BMI. Do you know what that is? My daughter is 17 years old, plays tennis, lifts weights and has a sporty build. She’s not overweight, but her BMI of 26 says she is. It upsets her, and it really doesn’t make sense.
