Morning SC.
No shock here, Whorealdo doesn’t think it any big deal.
Well, we shall see, the power of the purse is mighty.
Hi LG,
Yes, as you said, the power of the purse is mighty. I suspect many in NYC voted for Hill, so they’ll still go to the play. At least one person wrote in to F&F and said they have had tickets for months and now they don’t want to go. F&F folks have said the tickets are VERY pricey.
Whorealdo and others are talking about Jeff Sessions and some comments he apparently made 30 years ago.
General “Mad Dog” Mattis is meeting with Trump today. I couldn’t remember much about him so did a little research this a.m. He reminds me a little of Patton (even looks a little like him) - who, as you know, is one of Trump’s favorite generals. I think he’d make a great Sec of Defense.
For those like me that needed more info:

FWIW, here’s an article from the Atlantic (not a conservative mag by any stretch) from 2010. They call his comments “Hair Raising” and I didn’t think they were:
