Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Hey, I like Cran, despite his politics.

 

He's fine. Just an easy touch. And full of shit.

 

Newspaper headline writers should be.

 

Is Trump any longer than Rubio?

 

Of course, 'm' is a 3! Do you know nothing about journalism?

 

Number of letters-wise, no, although Trump's five letters take up slightly more space than Rubio's five letters.

 

Christie takes up the whole damn page.

Because he's fat.

 

"OK, let's put Hillary naming her VP in the one-column off-lead spot."

"Whom did she pick?"

"Debbie Wasserman Schultz."

"$&^!"

 

I'd be really curious to know how many of the reporters covering the campaign, and pundits commenting on it, bothered to read the book:



It would have been irresponsible to cover Obama's campaign without having read Dreams from My Father.

Why do I get the feeling that many felt that reading The Art of the Deal was both unnecessary and beneath them?

 

Journalists don't need to be reading all the time. There is an inherent intelligence that is not in play with regular "readers" and much of their time can be better spent.

 

Anyway, what's this I'm hearing about Cruz and Kasich going to tell their supporters in Florida to vote for Marco, and Marco and Cruz going to tell their supporters in Ohio to vote for Kasich?

Republicans sure like to play games with the electorate.

 

I don't understand it, either, YF. I started reading Ted Cruz's book when he won Iowa. I put it aside when he started losing, but I may have to pick up again where I left off.

People here have complained about the scene in "Spotlight" where the reporters use old diocese directories to reverse engineer the abusive priests' identities. The point is that sometimes the story is right underneath our noses. It seems like there are few better examples of this than the memoirs written by presidential candidates.

I wrote a book. The first research I did was to read every two-bit autobiography written by the coaches and athletes involved.
