Well, I guess taking a buck a day off every lout in the greater NYC area is a reasonably profitable business model, even if the paper you’re producing is a Murdochian POS the Columbia Journalism Review quite seriously called a “force for evil.”

This is a vote for the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. This isn’t a grow your own operation.

We laugh at our peril. He could be the next president, as unlikely as it seems to “normal” citizens. Me, I laugh too, but mostly at myself and ourselves, not to mention the corrupt regime now emplaced and systematized in our nation. What an ugly scene - hated and despised, afraid of America worldwide, most citizens remain uninformed, fully committed to being ignorant, and lazy regarding the state of the nation, and We The People. I’m laughing on the outside, crying on the inside (remember that one?).

I thought these sorts of announcement, pronouncements? proclamations?, were left for Friday afternoon so the no one would notice until Monday…

In this case it would be the voting lever:

"In an argument, you have to learn to control your emotions. The other person is the revolver, but you are the trigger. The revolver won’t hurt you as long as the trigger isn’t pulled.

Donald Trump, "

NY Post:

Trump is now an imperfect messenger carrying a vital message,” the endorsement continued. “But he reflects the best of ‘New York values’ …

No, Donald Trump does NOT reflect the best of New York Values. Trust me, if Donald Trump represented the best of NY values, I wouldn’t be a New Yorker.

The NY Post is a goddamn embarrassment. I’m pretty sure one of the main reasons we now have a musical about Alexander Hamilton, who founded the Post, is because he got so tired of spinning in his grave everyday at the Post’s output under Murdoch, that he broke out of his coffin, escaped the <a href=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrX7J9wN8Mk">bone-orchard, and strode onto Broadway just to stop the fucking motion sickness.

Trump has the attention span, temperament and vocabulary of a todddler AND yet he claims to be ‘THE GREATEST NEGOTIATOR’…LOL

One has to feel some pity* for New York Republicans. I mean, what can your life be like when your choices are Trump and Cruz?

*Pity in this case is spelled Schadenfreude

I thought they bought it for the pictures?

There was a monologue by Tim Kazurinsky on SNL sometime in the early 80’s where he opined, from the point of view of a NY retail exec, about the Post’s continuing financial losses under Murdoch:

Rupert Murdoch, the reason we don’t advertise in the NY Post is because your readers are our shoplifters.

(Or something like that. I may be getting exact quote wrong, and possibly even the cast member who delivered it, but that was the gist.)

The Post also wrote off some of Trump’s signature proposals – like building a wall at the border with Mexico – as “rookie mistakes,” and policies “made on the fly.”

Get someone from the paper’s editorial board on television within a week and ask him/her that question. They wouldn’t be able to do a straight face even if it was propped up by toothpicks.

Is it wrong that I need NJ.com’s endorsement of who Republicans should vote for in that upcoming primary? Seeing how they endorsed Christie and all…
