Political operatives aghast. No one else cares.
Iâm finding myself engaged in a moronic exercise, and I should know better, but Iâm still doing it. Every time the media gloms onto one of these Trump-is-doing-politics-wrong-and-itâs-going-to-cost-him stories, I wait for the inevitable result in which the whole issue either has no effect at all on Trump or, as seems more likely, actually helps him. That happens every time. Thatâs not the moronic part.
The moronic part is what I expect will happen next, which is that the political media finally, at long last, smacks itself in the forehead and says, Holy crap, these stories are idiotic because a) no one cares; and b) Trump not only defies political conventional wisdom on just about every score, but heâs proving to other candidates that they donât need to follow them either, thus rendering the whole Trumpâs-not-following-the-rules huffing and puffing self-evidently absurd. And they will stop doing the stories.
I should hope so!
Why sleep at a Holiday Inn?
Good for Trump!
Who pays for DT to fly home every night?
If he’s spending his own money, what business is it of mine?
Yankee catcher Thurman Munson did the same thing, and it didn’t work out for him. Trump has a considerably more serious plane, however, and has a professional pilot to fly it.
This Cruz supporter doesn’t care where Trump sleeps. When I first saw a similar headline, I thought that maybe he wanted his “own bed”, as in separate from Melania, like some royals do. When I found that he just commutes home like I did when I commuted 100 miles each way from Madison to northern Illinois each day, I could only shrug.
If you had a wife like his waiting for you, you would fly home too!
>> I thought that maybe he wanted his âown bedâ, as in separate from Melania, like some royals do.
You mean like His Royal Heinous Billy Jeff Clintoon for example?
Much as I despise the man, I don’t hold against him his not wanting to sleep with Her Heinous. :-)
Makes no difference to me. He is a free man in a free country. He can sleep where ever he has the desire.
I don’t like Trump, but this isn’t a big deal to me.
Well .. campaigning is a rigorous business .. and you need to be able to get the proper rest .. it’s important to your overall health.
And .. he’s paying for the plane .. so WHO CARES.
And he steals peoples coats while kicking them out in sub-zero weather.
Thread Winner! This thread is over. Turn out the lights. Somebody pick up that chair!
Its his plane, hes got the money why not? Its not like he needs the loyalty points. Why anyone would attack him on this is beyond me. Its moronic.
And he steals peoples coats while kicking them out in sub-zero weather.
The F’er deserved it!
The median will never wake up. They are writing for each other and are ruled by a herd mentality.
Oh good grief!
Why wouldn’t he?
The straws they grab at are getting more and more pathetic.

You won’t see a single Trump supporter take issue here with “Holy crap”.
One word: Melania
Nicely played...
