Currently on a 13-day tour of Asia, Trump urged China to “act faster” to combat the North Korean nuclear threat. The stakes could hardly be higher.

The choice of actor Bradley Whitford as moderator seems particularly apt, not only because he played White House deputy chief of staff Josh Lyman in The West Wing, but also because more recently he starred in the hit film Get Out – which shows race relations in America to be a horror story....

Psst, Hillary, you’re a year late. Or are you starting the 2020 campaign for President? Who will you cheat out of the nomination in 2020?
