BASEBALL TICKETS? Who racks a $200,000 debt over BASEBALL TICKETS? No, there's something else going on there. No way did that man spend that much money for freaking baseball tickets. No. Damn. Way. Maybe Jason Miller put something in Trump's drink this morning? I hear he's good at that kind of stuff.

Wait, what? How come I don't remember something as insane as that, lol? Ah, yes. I do miss the fact that the Obama years were largely free of personal scandals. I think that's why the media laps up everything now. For eight years, they had nothing juicy to go on about.

I don't remember either...and that's what's so sad about it. We're reduced to a minstrel show on a global stage.

Yep. Imagine if what had happened to Grover Cleveland -- namely, the discovery of an illegitimate child -- had happened to Obama as well. Even if he had still been elected, there would have been no END to the "baby daddy"/"baby mama" cracks.

It's sad, but what else COULD they do (but laugh)? That sentence was too preposterous to ignore. I'm just glad the rest of the world's "keepin' it 100," because God knows we can't anymore.

No doubt, the usual suspects will spin this to say, "What a great sense of humor he has!," and "Just LOVE how our president can let everything roll off his back!," and "How DARE those gutter snipes at the U.N. question the brilliant progress this administration has made in just two years!".

Another unfortunate result of Trump's "victory": everyone thinks they can run for political office. If anything, I see the Trump administration as the reason why we were better off harvesting our candidates from the Ted Casablancas School of Politicking.

But, you see, thanks to his ridiculous lie, he's raised the possibility that he lied in his yearbook about being a "Renate Alumnius." IOW, what I just said could happen in my last post, has happened already. Also, from David Mack's twitter: "other men say the phrase was about signalling they’d all dated or gone to dances with the same girl --" Yeah. Right. "but even that insinuation they would be making — in a yearbook, no less — is still really gross" Ya think? "All that means is, Renate and I went out once and had a really good time." Jesus, Brett, you are so pathetic.

ICAM. Of course, one might argue, he lied about his sexual conquests IN ORDER to be accepted into that culture. I'm not saying he lied in order to cover up his virginity, but I'm sure the possibility will come up at some point. Same! If he had penetrated either Ms. Ford or Ms. Ramirez, then maybe his "virgin defense" would make sense. But he didn't; and the fact that he tried to w/ Ms. Ford, but was both too drunk and too clumsy to "finish the job," for lack of a better word, only means he was a virgin who struck out.

The struggle is real for Ashley Kavanaugh, lol. Well, I just thought his chemistry with Ryan O'Neal on "Peyton Place" was off the charts. Oh, wait, that was Mia.

I'm a virgin, and I'm thirty-nine years old. For sure, it'll convince Mama Khan because, again, I'm a virgin, and I'm thirty-nine years old. Neither Ford nor Ramirez has said he actually penetrated them. If what he says is true -- which I doubt, even if I am less than one year away from being "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" -- then I think he's told more on himself than even he realizes. (Can you say "secret gay life"? Not saying he is, but he's opened the door to it. Trust me, you don't get to say you didn't have sex in college OR in high school, especially with Ford and Ramirez's accusations at play, w/o people questioning your sexuality just a little.)

LMAO. When in doubt, play the virgin, lol. You just KNOW that "I was a virgin all through high school and college" bit is gonna come back to bite him hard on the ass. Yet, according to that one article from, I think, WaPo, Kavanaugh himself buckled when they asked him explicit sexual questions while preparing him for committee. Brett Kavanaugh: he can dish it out, but like hell he can take it.

Yep, it's become a [!@#$%^&*] show. But, like I said before, what goes around, comes around. Bill Clinton might have been guilty of the things they accused him of, but Kavanaugh and everyone else on Starr's team was too damn eager to try and take him down. And the biggest irony of all...? Regardless of whether he's ultimately impeached, Trump, at this moment, is closer to being given the gate than old Bill ever was.

Nevermind, my lazy ass googled it for a change, lol. Just what does he think THAT will accomplish? And Fox News? Talk about "preaching to the choir"! Kavanaugh's clearly too afraid to talk to the "East Coast liberal social elite media," so he goes where he KNOWS they won't ask him any real questions. Whatevs, Brett. You effing p***y. (No offense, ladies.)

You think this "smear campaign" hits a "new low," Senator McConnell? Wait 'til they start digging up [!@#$%^&*] on you! The only thing Kavanaugh is standing up for is his own, blasted ego, "pure and simple."

ICAM. And no, I don't feel much sympathy for him. I'm just pointing out the fact that not even his own family's safety is more important to this man than being named to the SCOTUS. Up next: UNICEF!

Hollywood Sexual Harrasment/Assault Thread
Exactly. I'm not suggesting the stories about Barbra Streisand are baseless, but I think it's telling how she (and other actresses) get vilified for the same kind of arrogant behavior that their male counterparts in the industry always get a pass for. If Robert Redford is allowed to act like a jerk because he thinks Arthur Laurents' script makes him look like a wuss, then Streisand should get a pass as well for being overly controlling and demanding.

Yet, for ages, people have touted him as this sensitive, enlightened type. A "thinking women's sex symbol," if you will. Your job, Mr. Redford, WAS to do something about it. Not just as a celebrity with enormous clout and box office appeal, but as a basic, decent human being. It doesn't matter if it didn't "hit close to home," you still should have done something about it (besides "create an alternative," whatever the hell that means). But you were obviously more concerned with your own damn career than you were with protecting women who were being debased by men you were working with, and for. IOW, Mr. Redford, you were complicit; and so, too, was every other man and woman in H'wood who KNEW what was happening, yet merely looked away. RR doesn't get a pass from me, and he hasn't gotten a pass from me ever since I read about the BTS shenanigans on "The Way We Were" that proved he was just as much the preening diva as Streisand. He's trash, and I hope his retirement after this latest film will be permanent.

ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?
Sorry to hear about her diagnosis. A close family friend is also an MS sufferer. Believe me, it's no day at the park. I'm also sorry she "hated" working on Y&R, but I can't say I blame her for how she feels. Y&R did neither her nor her character any favors.
