Harvey Weinstein is being trounced from all liberal society, including those “lefties” in Hollywood. But Trump? His base is fine with his obscene lewd behavior.

The Senate will continue to have Benghazi hearings, so that they don’t have to talk about about Niger. They will hope everyone will just forget about that.

Both sides participate in dirty politics, the dirtier, the better. All’s fair until they uncover something scandalous and then they call foul, unless they are the ones finding the scandal.

You can believe what you want. But you don’t get to have one set of rules and consequences for the people that you like and one set for everyone else. That makes you an outright hypocrite. That’s why people are so disgusted with the GOP, conservatives and the Trump fans, they are all hypocrites.

It was rather shocking to see General Kelly say that respect for women was a thing of the past. Perhaps he missed the “Access Hollywood” video where his boss talked about women.

We waited for years to have the abandoned house demolished at 919 W. 7th in Hobart and what do we get? R.V. storage.

The problem that I have with Trump and his clan is that they don’t allow for any discussion. If you don’t agree with their idea or opinion, they attack you, very aggressively and personally. Not your opinion or idea, just that you would stand up to him.

Whoever is slow to anger show great wisdom, but those that show a quick temper are a fool.

The most appealing quality any person can have is kindness. Without it they are worthless. It seems to be quite lacking lately.

Just because you can find a doctor to say that you have a medical problem, doesn’t make it so. And that doesn’t automatically mean that you are unfit for military service. Many people, doctors included, will do whatever you want, as long as you pay them handsomely. Money talks.

The silence is killing you because in the not too distant future Mueller will have a recommendation. And it won’t be good for Herr Trump.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions says people should just “say no” to opioids. Okie dokie, problem solved.

Trump keeps insisting he graduated at the top of his class at Wharton. The Daily Pennsylvanian published 1968 Wharton’s Dean’s List — Trump’s name was not on it. He graduated without honors.

Subterfuge and dirty tricks and dossiers are not limited to one party. Ever.

I thought that General Kelly was hired as a watch dog to monitor Trump. This watch dog has turned into a lap dog—a breed as old as time. It’s not a particularly good look for a general.
