You need to lay off your late-night viewings of “Dave.” It doesn’t work quite like that IRL.
“The last President to have a military flyover was Harry S. Truman in 1949.”
Well, as is likely to be the case with most of the things Trump does over the next 2* years, it appears he is doing what he’s doing simply to be a dick, and to show he’s in charge. As I understand it, the norm is that people are given time to tidy up loose ends, make personal arrangements, etc. even though it is…
That is for the more prestigious ones. The ambassador to Switzerland, for example, is likely to be a GOP mega donor. Many posts, however, are filled by long time State employees who are loyal soldiers to the country, not any one political party.
Tommy Lasorda had a very similar story in his autobiography, wherein as a young kid he asked some ballplayer to sign his glove, and the guy basically told him to fuck off, and then when Lasorda, years later, was pitching in the minors (as a just-signed prospect), this same guy came up to bat, sort of on his last go…
Two things. My darkest secrets are pretty tame, and I’m not holding myself up as a paragon of moral virtue to the world, as Newt is.
Never forget, Newt was the guy who literally served his wife divorce papers while she was recovering from cancer surgery. And then cheated on the women he left her for (and married) with the woman who became his current/3rd wife. And once told a girlfriend that he could only have oral sex with her (him receiving, of…
Yeah, go look at that video again and now pretend you’re the GM who has to stand in front of the press with your new draft picks and EVERY QUESTION from the press is asking why you drafted the guy who punched that woman in the face so hard.
Amen. I fly Alaska about 80% of the time for business. The other 20% when I have to endure American, United, etc. makes me all the more happy to get back on Alaska. They have the same happy irreverence, and I love it.
Yeah, babies are just being babies. Loud dudes are CHOOSING to be belligerent dicks. 100x worse.
Alaska Airlines is pretty great as well. I was on a flight once (departed at 630am) and the flight attendants came on and said “and we’ll also be offering beer and and assortment of liquor along with our morning coffee and snacks. Yes, it’s 630, but we won’t judge you, folks. Everyone needs to cut loose every so…
You would die, and there is a large fence up to prevent you from doing that.
It would be, like, super interesting to look at the stock activity of Trump’s friends and family in the hours preceding one of his out-of-left-field tweets. He can literally impact the value of publicly traded companies by hundreds of millions of dollars at the drop of a hat. Crazy to think that certain people…
