Imagine taking over the Trump organization and not being allowed to do anything illegal. The man must have blue balls you can see from space.

Except he was never very good at running for President. His great success was in convincing Obama that he would keep the congressional silverbacks from eating him alive (which he was not terribly effective at after they were elected) and they're not playing by those rules any more anyway.

I thought I was making the same point as I was about the Kardashians, but whatever.

Was that a both sides do it filibuster? Cait is a terrible woman because Cait is a terrible woman, not because Cait is a transitioned woman or a Republican woman. Is there anything about that you disagree with?

We don't know if she's surgically transitioned, as far as I know.

Because of her ignorance. I don't think it's ever crossed her mind that all her privilege was rooted to anything but her personal awesomeness and her Republican Ideals, so she doesn't see why she should have to leave it behind. Which, more power to her, except she's no use to everyone else who isn't as privileged.

And, she's talking to the lovely and talented Mr. Catsimatidis. I think the question of whether she's going to turn out to be the same godawful Republican jackass she was in her pre-Cait life has been answered.

It makes me happy that for whatever reason Tracy latched on to Johnson and dug his heels in until production held up for him after he was in a car accident.

Um. Always is a corny forties romance. Specifically it's a remake of a 1943 movie called A Guy Named Joe with Spencer Tracy in the Richard Dreyfuss part, Irene Dunne in the Holly Hunter part, and a stupidly young Van Johnson in the whoever played the other guy part.

It's a clever themed fundraiser for woman candidates.

The really magical Vanity Fair article about Trump is by that journalistic excrescence Ed Klein when Marla Maples was jerking him around by the short hairs.

Probably, but it would take a long, long time, and they may end up where they started at the end.

Well, inviting his mistress to the family Xmas ski trip and then booking her a table at the restaurant the family was having dinner at so she could have the break up fight with his wife he didn't have the stones for in front of his kids wasn't great parenting either.

In this particular case, yes.

Well, he's married to her, anyway. It's been at least a few months, so his wanderlust may be itching again.

Those are grandpa and a tomato. That must be one hell of a precious deli.

But will there be brodjoot and muzz?

trufax: I once walked past David Brooks in person entering an overpriced UES mexican restaurant.

Now I really, really want to know what the consensus amongst the stroller class is about David Foster Wallace. Surely they've evolved to appreciating him ironically by now?
