A collection of the best quotes ever uttered by politicians or about them. Just one caveat: they can't all sound like Gettysburg.
Will the National Baseball Hall of Fame Museum Be Trump's Next Target?
In late July, Ichiro, CC Sabathia, and Billy Wagner will be officially inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. That's because these three ex-MLB players paid their dues and deserve to be recognized as legends. Two months ago, our loudmouth-in-chief was considering pardoning the late Pete Rose and blamed Major League Baseball for banning him for life from baseball, making him ineligible for the Baseball Hall of Fame. I'm not sure how Rose would be pardoned, if it were to happen, but there's a good chance that it would never happen. I've stated in my story about Pete Rose that he should remain banned for life from baseball and Hall of Fame consideration to be null and void. When Pete Rose passed away in September 2024, I didn't share any condolences on any of my social media pages, because I felt it was inappropriate to praise someone who bet on baseball and had no care in the world about how it affected his team, players, and fans. I know it sound callous of me saying this, but betting on baseball is a form of cheating. Cheating in baseball is an unforgiveable act and I'll never acknowledge Pete Rose as a legend. It shows that integrity for the game didn't matter to him.

Why Does Donald Trump Lean Forward? A Closer Look at the Mystery Behind His Posture.
Why Does Donald Trump Lean Forward? A Closer Look at the Mystery Behind His Posture. For years observers have noted Donald Trump’s peculiar forward leaning posture. While many people speculate about the cause the conversation surrounding this odd stance has largely been ignored by mainstream media. So what exactly is going on with Trump’s posture and why is it seemingly more pronounced now than during his 2016 campaign? Let’s break it down. If you’ve watched Trump closely at public appearances rallies or debates you’ve likely noticed that he often leans forward at the waist almost as if his upper body is being pulled downward. This unnatural stance has raised eyebrows with theories ranging from simple shoe lifts to more concerning medical conditions. Some have suggested that Trump’s lean could be due to lifts in his shoes which would artificially increase his height but potentially throw off his balance. However this explanation doesn’t hold up under scrutiny. Plenty of men wear shoe lifts yet they do not exhibit the pronounced forward tilt that Trump does. If shoe lifts were the primary cause we’d see similar postural issues in countless other high profile individuals but we don’t. Medical professionals have pointed out that a persistent forward lean can be symptomatic of underlying health issues. One potential explanation is camptocormia a condition associated with neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. Camptocormia causes individuals to lean forward when standing or walking often as a result of muscle weakness or spinal degeneration. Another possibility is some form of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Trump’s father, Fred Trump, suffered from Alzheimer’s and there is a hereditary component to dementia. Over 200 medical professionals have issued warnings about Trump’s cognitive health and a persistent forward lean is sometimes seen in patients with neurodegenerative conditions. The connection between posture and neurological decline is well documented in medical literature making this theory a serious one to consider. What’s even more baffling than Trump’s posture itself is the way so many people pretend it isn’t happening. There’s an almost Orwellian insistence from his supporters and many in the media that there’s nothing unusual about his stance. Yet, to any objective observer his posture is not normal. The reluctance to discuss it could be a result of America’s uncomfortable relationship with aging and illness especially in political figures. Discussing a leader’s health is often seen as taboo despite the immense power they wield. However, in Trump's case his extreme forward lean is not just a minor quirk it could be an indicator of something far more serious.
