Hand it to New York Times columnist Gail Collins for keeping Old Buck in the news. Collins checks in periodically with folks at Lancasterhistory.org to solicit the latest word about a president often labeled “the worst president ever.” (The president she compares Buchanan with has no trouble getting attention ...

That is, if you were an editor, which opposing views would you solicit, and which would you decline to publish? I'm not looking for a comprehensive list. An example or two of each would be welcome. Email me at leonhardt@nytimes.com. Scott Pruitt doesn't like sitting in traffic. My colleague Gail Collins ...

The other day, Trump was discussing Russia at a news conference with the prime minister of Norway, when he suddenly announced that ...

Not the speculation about whether he's losing his marbles. That was during our “Fire and Fury” period last week. Now we're thinking about that lovely bipartisan meeting the president hosted Tuesday with members of Congress about immigration. Everybody was impressed by how concerned Trump ...

So, to start the year, our president bragged that he has a “much bigger” nuclear button than the guy in North Korea. Coming next week: Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un compare finger length and shoe and head size. That last is complicated by the fact that they have what are two of the worst ...

To the Editor: Re “Donald Trump's Gift to Women” (column, Dec. 14): The new wave of #MeToo-inspired feminist reform that Gail Collins anticipates looks backward to old notions of feminine fragility and moral purity.

Ms. Collins is smart, compassionate and funny. She offers me an alternative to just despising President Bannon-Trump and the Congressional Mepublicans.
