That’s now news.

What IS newsworthy is, HOW can a person with SUCH an abysmal past and with SO many ghastly associations and flaws even consider a nomination for the Presidency?

By now, Americans ARE hooked on mediocrity are totally indifferent to crime and incompetence

Exactly. They don't care about qualifications anymore. Nowadays, it's all about two things: 1) Whether that candidate is aligned with their political leanings, past record be damned; and 2) Who will keep the freebies coming.

Agreed. Last night on another thread in which somebody posted a pic of Boss Hogg and Sheriff Rosco P Coltrane (from the TV show “The Dukes of Hazzard”), I remarked that if only Boss Hogg had doled out EBT cards to the populace and corporate welfare to Chamber of Commerce buddies, the Dukes would have had a virtually impossible fight against him, lol.

Therefore, your comment about Americans being indifferent to crime and incompetence is right on the mark.

Americans want to go back to the 90’s when things were effortless and they didn’t believe they would have to think ahead. It’s a perverse determination to end up avoiding responsibility for anything. Why else do you think Obama got elected?
