By the time that Eagjeton happened, McGovern was already well beaten…and had no chance. This was the worst political performance since the kid said “the Emperor has no clothes.”
Trump was flawless in letting his enemy destroy himself…and zipped in a fair number of zingers while he was at it.
Maybe the worst thing since Dukakis said he would still be opposed to the death penalty even if the perp had raped and murdered his wife and daughter.
