America is an incredibly polarized country politically. I think ANY Republican would start out with 42 percent of the vote.

More quotes by Gene Weingarten
Donald Trump would never belong to a church that required a ten percent hit. He's too smart.
Gene Weingarten
I think there are a good many Donald Trump voters who are sick of government as it is practiced in America and genuinely want to blow up the system and see what happens. They are stupid - or at least unwise - but not necessarily racist.
Gene Weingarten
I always thought there was some cleverness to the joke diet in which you could eat as much as you want and as often as you want, but everything must be consumed naked in front of a full-length mirror. That would deter me!
Gene Weingarten
I very much believe in the Intentional Fallacy. If Donald Trump lies and dopes and bumbles and staggers his way into peace in the middle east, he gets credit for it. He owns it.
Gene Weingarten
I think Trump wants to be dictator. I don't think the courts will allow him to be, and I think that after months of revolting sycophancy, neither will Congress. He will sink to such a popularity trough that even those spineless, craven gophers will cave.

Johnny Hart became much less funny after he found sobriety, and religion, around the same time.
Gene Weingarten
The horrifying thing is that nearly half of America seems in synch with xenophobia and race-baiting.

Donald Trump is an awful loser.

Rhyme is cool again. It's because of hip-hop. Bless you, hip-hop.

It is hard to quantify the value of name recognition, but Donald Trump has gone from fame to international mega-fame. That has to be gargantuan when your business is your name.

I was possessing heroin in fairly large quantities in New York City during the years of the draconian Rockefeller Drug Laws. Had I been busted, I would have faced mandatory life in prison. I don't think many white kids walked, either. I knew one who got 15 years for pot.
Gene Weingarten
The verb Garland should be created. It would mean to unfairly put a stinking albatross around someone's neck, to make him unemployable.
Gene Weingarten
The advent of DNA testing, and the number of convictions thrown out, has confirmed that we've put LOTS of innocent people to death. There need not be any other argument against death penalty.
Gene Weingarten
I personally favor old mechanical watches, but my snobbery does not extend to demanding that all people wear them. My snobbery demands that no one wear a digital.
Gene Weingarten
Most men I know adore women, and I am including gay men. I think studies on jury selection show that the biggest critics of women - people less likely to trust their character or judgment - are women.
Gene Weingarten
Ask creative people where they get their ideas, and they will roll their eyes. It's the most common question, but it's also a bad one because the answer is inevitably disappointing. From the inside, creativity seems like an arduous task, often involving plebeian, imperfect choices, driven less by inspiration than by deadline.

Editorials are editorials. They a supposed to have an opinion, even a very strong one.
Gene Weingarten
Every single fat comic uses his weight as a punchline. There is something sad about that.

Knowing the identity of the leaker helps you analyze the likelihood that the material is real.

Hillary Clinton rubs people the wrong way, for valid reasons.
