More quotes by 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
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.

Donald Trump would never belong to a church that required a ten percent hit. He's too smart.

Peggy Noonan is not as good a columnist as my colleague Kathleen Parker, in my opinion, but they share something related to their Pulitzers. Kathleen won in in 2010. They won it for a similar reason. They broke from their crowd, and sprinted away. They delivered the politically unexpected take, at some peril to their readership.

The horrifying thing is that nearly half of America seems in synch with xenophobia and race-baiting.
Gene Weingarten
My neighborhood is fairly white, yet the local middle school is all black. It is bad. It is very bad.
Gene Weingarten
I really value unforgettable moments. Things you can tell people about. We have too few of them in our lives, and it is all too seldom that we can create one such moment for a stranger.
Gene Weingarten
It is a cliche, and it is also true, that humor springs from existential pain - from a need to blunt the awareness that life is essentially a fatal disease of unpredictable symptoms and unknown duration.
Gene Weingarten
You should support Israel not because it is Jewish but because it is a sane, secular democracy. You want Lebanon to be at peace. You don't care much about Kuwait.
Gene Weingarten
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.
Gene Weingarten
I think politics is everything.

When my daughter was a senior in high school, I remember noticing, almost in passing, that her friends were very cute. Which made me realize her friends' fathers probably found Molly very cute.
Gene Weingarten
One thing I am learning from the kitten is that everything he is doing seems to be in preparation for murder.
Gene Weingarten
I believe that the fragile-flower, idea-intolerant society of victimhood that is being cultivated in many colleges today is really bad.
Gene Weingarten
I don't hold doors for women. I'm not sure I really differentiate between men and women, in my door-related activities. Do women really care about this issue?
Gene Weingarten
Hillary Clinton was a cute, smart chick in the 1960s.
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
I need an irony punctuation mark for the clueless.
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!

It is not a coincidence that Donald Trump has attracted white supremacists.
