Left Coast Sports Babe

Really like Andrew McCutchen and have enjoyed watching him play. But couldn’t SF Giants have traded him to a team Giants fans could tolerate?   #DamnYankees

–

Now Trump is saying actual tapes that everyone has seen (but he doesn’t like) are “fudged.”

–

As an SF Giants fan can we be Presidential and say all those game tapes blown saves and 1 run losses this year were fudged and the team is on their way to clinching the NL West?

–

Now 145 former Ohio State students have come forward to accuse late sports doctor Richard Strauss of sexual abuse, the abuse Jim Jordan now denies knowing about. So another “he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he…. said” situation

–

Must be killing Donald Trump that even Fox News is devoting the morning to John McCain’s funeral.

–

As crazy as Betsy Devos’ idea to spend school money to arm teachers sounds, suppose with enough guns teachers can get all the school supplies they want.

–

I remember days when Phyllis Schlafly was biggest traitor to her gender we could imagine. Now Betsy Devos’s new rules for sexual violence investigations on campus “Every complainant’s sexual history, if relevant. may be introduced at the hearing…” #WTF?

Trump today cancels pay raises for most federal employees set to take effect in January, citing budget concerns.
Got to pay for those billionaire tax cuts somehow.

–

Not only did Trump at his Indiana rally say “Democrats want to raid Medicare to pay for Socialism,”  but Breitbart doubled down on it by making the statement a headline

And here Trump complains Democrats claim his supporters are stupid – he’s the one acting like they are.

–

So if the US economy has never been better why does Trump need to cancel pay raises for federal employees because our budget cannot afford it?
Asking for a country.

–

Trump bragging today about 401k’s and stock market. Wasn’t one of reasons MAGAers said they voted for him is that all the economic gains were going to the elites – ie stockholders?

Miami Marlins will allow noisemakers in designated section of Marlins Park next year. Apparently they want to make 300 fans sound like 30,000?

Packers signed Aaron Rodgers to 4-year, $134 million extension. In related news expect Green Bay to announce beer and brats can now be paid for with an interest-free loan.

–

Cleveland releases LB  Mychal Kendricks after he was charged for insider trading over making over  $1 million in illegal investments in 2014.  Well, at least Kendricks didn’t do something obvious like betting against the Browns.

–

Betsy Devos wants to use federal funds to arm teachers in schools, which means taking the money from things like school supplies. On the other hand, with enough guns, maybe teachers can demand all the pencils they want.

Ted Cruz must be getting scared, Texas GOP running an ad referencing a DUI arrest Beto O’Rourke got over 20 years ago.
But considering George W. Bush and Cheney had 3 such arrests between them, maybe Republicans are trying to say O’Rourke is Presidential material.

–

So who’s going to be one to break it to Donald Trump that Republicans generally win Republican primaries?

Meanwhile, in Arizona,  over 140,000 people STILL voted for Kelli Ward, and over 94,000 voted for Joe Arpaio. Hillary was right about deplorables.

ICE agents detailed 160 allegedly undocumented workers after a surprise raid at Load Trail Trailers in Texas, but no “criminal arrests” were made.
Uh, why not? If Feds REALLY wanted to stop businesses hiring illegals, lock the executives up.
