Pro tip: When you aspire to play the
game at the presidential level, there are certain unforced rookie
errors you don't want to make anymore.
The classic error, of
course, is assuring the American people that "I am not a crook" (which, as my father remarked at the time, is like being one of two people in an elevator and saying "I didn't fart"), although it's not much better if your spouse
feels she must insist in an interview that you're not
Hitler, or (my personal favorite) not
the Zodiac Killer.
Which is why it's a little distressing to hear
the slow-mo exploding citrus utter this
in an interview following his meeting with the British prime minister
(which itself didn't do much for the Special Relationship):
Okay, here's the thing: If you have to
say you're not stupid -- not like everyone says -- you might need to review some of your
assumptions. Because, in fact, you might be exactly
like everyone says.
Now, of course, Fredo was a middle child and
had pneumonia as a baby. What's Trump's excuse?
