Regarding his belief that he’d been offered a full scholarship when he was in high school-—that might have worked had he written his autobiography shortly thereafter, but it does not work now. He was asked directly recently if he’d been offered a full scholarship, actually offered one, he had to say no. The thing is, he had to have known that when he wrote the book. He could have clarified things with a few words, but it appears that he did not.

We also learned after the stabbing story that the near victim was not a friend, but a close relative. Still no corroboration on that. What about the lock story? The baseball bat stuff?

Too many unanswered questions remain, too many retellings. Are we getting a ‘tell the truth slowly’ situation? Will we eventually learn that none of the violent stuff took place outside of his imagination?

Absolutely picking fly specks out of pepper
type of stuff. It is possible he may have
NEVER learned how candidates actually gained
acceptance into West Point. Do you know that
there is a West Point preparatory institution
which is how many of their athletes get into
the academy? I know a local boy who went the
West Point Prep route as a football recruit
out of high school. He lasted about a week
before he and WP parted ways. He ended up getting
a degree from my old school, Cal Poly, and was one
of the football team captains.

As to the Carson as bad boy issue I can’t imagine
a famous surgeon claiming to be a former hood,,,,for
what? More votes? I suspect he had the story out
there before he ever decided to run and he avoids gotcha
moments by controlling the narrative.

Want to talk some Trump? Don’t think he is all
Peter Pan do you?
