Why is it so frustrating when you’re on a cellphone call with bad service and the other person says “I can’t hear you, you’re breaking up.” NO you are breaking up!
the “winners and losers” of the presidential debate were based on who hurled the worst zingers (winners) and who received the worse zingers (losers). There is no “presidential skill” that is more important than embarrassing your competitors. Right @ewarren @MikeBloomberg ?
