Post Stuffington Post

Political conversation this Thanksgiving a first. Family rarely let it all hang out. For many reasons. But, 2015 has given birth to new voices. Apolitical siblings are all Trump. Independent-minded moderates can’t find a Republican they like. Rubio a rube. Ted snarly. Bush lite. The usual moon bats prefer Bernie and don’t like Hillary much, but Supreme Court appointees brought everyone together. Bottom line. Hillary may pull it off.

Watched Amy Schumer’s Train Wreck. Hader and Swinton were great. Otherwise. Okay.

In Sports news. Joey3Sticks picks Denver over New England. Yes. You heard it here. Injuries over talent. But, hey. AFC. They are all girls anyway. Go Giants!

Benched

Not only has Forty Niners QB Kaepernick been benched. Next week’s Republican debate on Fox Business has sidelined Christie and Huckabee. Relegated to the B team. There will only be eight starters in Prime Time. And. When you turn 91, you can tell the truth. Poppy Bush 41 has sent Cheney and Rummy packing. He even casts his own son President 43 under the bus. Makes Jeb!’s prospects for scoring a touchdown even dimmer than ever. He’ll be lucky to get a first down.

Autumn fallen to Christmas. Commercials have already begun. Bon weekend.

Bloomberg Flip

Before Donald. June 4. Pleaded for President Mike. Then, Trump got into the race. Same sound dynamics. Ran things. No need to raise outside funds. New Yorker who rose to the top. Meanwhile, Jeb the Whiner has withered, Kasich hasn’t caught fire, Ben Carson rises despite his snoozy radical views, Rubio looks like a bellhop at the Hilton. Hillary and Bernie continue the Obama regime.

So. For Balance. Don’t you wish it were true? President Mike! Donald Trump for Mayor of New York. Mike Bloomberg for President of the United States. Great.

Mets in Six.

Petulant Adolescent Presidents

Great NY Times Magazine piece on El Trumpo. Mark Leibovich accompanied Donald on his private jet to various campaign venues. He confirms that between gigs Donald watches himself on every channel and tweets after dark like a frenzied teen. Nevertheless, he entertains crowds and disrupts old political ways.

Meanwhile, Russia’s Vlad swaggers through his gold-gilded doors with similar narcissism and bombast. He will fight ISIS in Syria. So, let him. As Donald says, why not? Do we want to send our kids there to fight? Let Putin do it.

Siempre Adelante!

Francisco is the coolest most authentic person. A joyful warrior for mercy. Siempre adelante! Kinda like Kasich. Evangelicals deride the Pope’s stands on climate change and income inequality. Their hate for Muslims and illegal immigrants Trumps their love for Jesus. Interesting times.

What happens when you fly West to escape oncoming Pope cluster in Manhattan? You run into Chinese President Xi at your Seattle hotel.

Trump-a-Thon

CNN Repub. Debate. Okay. Nobody took my advice to steal the discussion. Boring. Long. 3 hours of Trumping around. Jeb! woke up a little, but his RBF is a mirror of his mother’s. Yes. Carly has neutralized H-Rod’s woman factor. She is smart and good. But, again. The RBF needs work. A little too sour. Pataki in the first debate was strong in his defense of the rule of law v. theocratic leaning arguments for the marriage license lady. Rubio a sweaty nervous mess. Ben Carson sleeps while he speaks. And. Trump. All screen. All the time. In the end. Kasich-Fiorina a great ticket.

New American Divide

Peggy Noonan‘s piece in the Wall Street Journal analyzes the new voting “base”. From her New York neighborhood to the Trump-nomenon. Elites vs. non-elites with no particular party loyalty. Confounding pundits and reporters alike.

And then there’s the arcane paradigm pitting men against women. It’s beyond insulting to think that women vote in a mindless monolithic block. Hillary’s history-making inevitability. Really? Wondering why H-Rod and bff aide Huma Abedin stayed married to bimbo-eruptor Bill and sleaze dog Weiner. How does that recommend them to repudiate acts against. Wait for it. Women. Or girls.

Game Changers

Are the tables turning? Defining moment. Apolitical sibling yearned to see Trumpo at New Hampshire town hall. Ready to make the trek. Wow. The Donald expects to fill a stadium in Alabama tonight. What will he say about North Korea’s war taunt? Kim Jong. Bing. Bing. Bong. Bomb. Bomb. Bomb. Probably. While everyone else scowls and gripes. H-Rod to go toe to toe with Joe?

Tiger shot a 64. Could there be more? Caitlyn Jenner changed so she could go to a women’s prison for manslaughter? Just asking. Bon weekend.

Desperately Seeking Somebody

Democrats are scrambling to find somebody to rise from the bench if/when Hillary implodes. Bernie energizes the moonbat far left base. Biden never stimulates votes. God love him. Gore rumor quashed before it became one. Kerry lame afterthought. Warren done. Anemic choices.

Repubs not so great, either. Jeb’s foreign policy speech at Reagan Library written by Dick Cheney, Kristol, Wolfowitz. NeoCons Term3. Trump, Carson, Fiorina anti-magnetic forces with short shelf life. Kasich not igniting sparks.

Tiger out. Spieth and McIlroy even. PGA a bust of late. Somebody. Fire us up!

Bye Felicia!

Oh Donald. What have you done? What are we to do now? Listen to the rest of the boring pack for another year. You gave us so much entertainment. And now it is done. Yes, you don’t reserve your boorish comments for just women. You are an equal opportunity insult machine. Prisoners of war as cowards and such. But, there are some places you cannot go. And you went there. Megyn got to you.

At least H-Rod is immune from that particular attack. Shark. Jumped.
