The divide was evident at a recent Greenville, S.C., gathering of bankers and lawyers, reliable Republicans who shared tea and pastries...
Had it said "beer and bratwurst" I would have taken it seriously. "Tea and pastries" tells me everything I need to know about these people. They aren't us.
I like both tea and pastries.
But when I gather with friends to discuss politics and the course of the nation, I prefer meat and whiskey.
In accordance with the American Way, time honored and proven.
“reliable Republicans who shared tea and pastries...”
‘Had it said “beer and bratwurst” I would have taken it seriously. “Tea and pastries”’
Look on the bright side. It could have said tea and crumpets.
