While I feel like I'm admitting to watching a reality show, I'll be watching this amazing storyline of The Corporation led by Donald Trump with glee. Anyone else?

Yes, these are old.
Donald Trump recently said he has a great relationship with the blacks. Unless the blacks are a family of white people, I would guess he's mistaken.

I didn't know the pregame show started at 4 PM. Renee Young looks a little rough today.

What about your paycheck? Sure. You'd be making out better with the $10.00 though. |

Thank you Five ThirtyEight. He actually went further with this one, and said they rank second in Hispanic and African American graduation rates. Apparently he just lumped them in with the false stats.
Rick Perry said Texas “moved graduation rates forward from 27th in the nation to second-highest” while he was governor. He’s made statements like this before, and as PolitiFact has pointed out, it’s not exactly true. The metric to measure graduation rates changed between 2001-02, when Perry claims Texas ranked 27th, and 2013-14, when Texas tied for second. If the yardstick had stayed the same, Texas would have ranked 22nd in 2012, the latest year for which comparable data is available.

Statistics can be used to prove anything.
97% of people know that.

Those are the hardest kind of flower baskets to keep moist. You have to water them pretty much twice a day.

Jeb Bush was called Veto Corleone. Fredo could be more like it.

Did I hear Rubio say if it's a resume competition that Hillary will be President?
