Donald J. Trump: The leader of ‘Simon Says’
COLUMN Sharon Kennedy Community Columnist “Simon Says” was a silly game from my youth. There wasn’t much to it. It involved no technology and could be played anytime, anywhere.

Sharon Kennedy: Let’s get off Mr. Trump’s back
Trump called on his supporters to send their contributions directly to his own committees in his first speech since leaving office. That call puts Trump at odds with the Republican Party’s existing political organizations, including the Republican National Committee and the party’s congressional campaign arms.
