Lady G: “Their power and electoral success appears to be growing day by day.”

I recall a movie like this in the 90s that mirrored the James Carville, Mary Matalin dynamic. “Speechless” (w/ Michael Keaton and Geena Davis). Then there wasSwing Vote” w/ Kevin Costner a/w/a that Sandra Bullock, Billy Bob Thornton movie (“Our Brand is Crisis”) from a few years back. Oh yeah, there were also all tho

When I was 17 (Summer of 1987), I won two tickets, from a radio show, to see the Righteous Bros and Ben E. King n NH @ the Club Casino. My dad and I were not that close. Didn’t like the same music, he was into 50s music, I liked Prince, I liked baseball, he was more into hockey. So, originally I was going to give them

I would also prefer Bolton get nothing in return for the book, but 1.) I believe Simon and Schuster (sp) is affiliated w/ CBS (it’s their publishing house), so also expect Bolton to be on the Sunday CBS Morning Show (among others), and 2.) Colbert (and CBS by extension) is looking for ratings, just like any other show

Granted I found this on Wikipedia, but at a cursory glance, it’s been predominantly settlements and counter-suits

FYI, at a press Q&A yesterday (right? pretty sure it was yesterday), Trump and Barr had no idea the book was already out in the ether and was just waiting to be sent to bookstores next week for purchase. Seriously?

Next?

In “American Carnage” by Tim Alberta, he points out anything Pence does is to work his way into the WH as POTUS. Everything is calculated, everything is done w/ precise movements, everything is manipulated, again to ensure he works his way to the top and, unlike Trump, can do it in such a fashion that before the frog

The book is already out there as I saw Colbert holding up a copy last night on his show. I think Simon and Schuster (sp?) is a subsidiary of CBS. If, by some miracle, it gets delayed, it’ll just get leaked by someone. 

So the Bolton book this month, the Mary Trump book next month. It’s going to be an interesting campaign summer.

I now remember the story of Charles Sumner. Now, if only someone would find a lovely cane and introduce Cruz to it. Yes, that would be lovely.

Not too worry, they will pump him up w/ every conceivable “upper” they can find. Adderall, amphetamines, meth, Ritalin, Concerta cocaine, a/o khat. It will not matter, b/c all he has to do is get out there for about an hour or so, rant and rave, and then after he is out of the spotlight, get him into the car and get

I love this idea, am also not sure it is true, but here is what I think could happen. More than 20K will show, w/ or w/o tickets, hours in advance of this shitshow. If Trump and Co. realize there may be some empty seats, they will start inviting anyone and everyone who (does not have tickets) and is already outside of

Memba many years ago when every pop radio station played “Cool Kids” what seemed like every hour on the hour? I memba.

To this day, based on 2016 election exit polls, I will never fucking understand how (out of 24558 respondents) the 5% of those identifying as LGBTQA+ that 14% of them voted for him? He should have gotten 0%. FFS!!!

Another nugget from the Dumpster in Chief:

Fingers crossed.

But (the living embodiment of a coke, heroin and meth fiend) Larry Kudlow said, we’re going to be ok? Right?

Still one of my favorite excerpts from Michael Wolff’s “Fire and Fury” is that on Election Night 2016, right after it had been announced Trump had won, Melania broke down in tears. Then knowing that she could no longer live her secluded life in a tower, and had to become a public figure, which I am sure she hates.
