It's apparently wrong not to be just as crooked as the other guy?
LOL! I don't get it, either.
‘It’s apparently wrong not to be just as crooked as the other guy?’
I admire your economy of words. You said in one sentence what I said in several. I like your version best—and I second your analysis. Makes no sense to me either.
Actually what she seems to be saying is if the other guy is crooked, is actually telling you he’s being crooked, you need to figure out a way to counteract and overcome the crookedness. She’s not saying you need to be crooked yourself.
If there’s somewhere in the article where she says differently, I’d love to have the quote because I just don’t see it.
