In all "HONESTY," George asks the world's dumbest question.
Of COURSE he knew it was wrong.
He just didn't think he'd get caught, and besides, everyone else would've done the same thing. Right?
We know DONALD TRUMP would.
One reason he's beloved by some 40% of Americans is that they identify with his cruelty, obnoxiousness, bullying and chicanery.
They'd do JUST what HE does if they could.
They'd cheat on wifey with a porn star. They'd use infantile insults to jeer a rival.
They'd hire a contractor and then say "suck it," and not pay for the work.
They'd approve of their sons shooting and killing wild animals for trophies.
They'd happily "grab 'em by the pussy" while owning a beauty pageant.
They'd glut on fast food garbage.
They'd answer all criticisms with mocking grimaces and a variety of smirks.
Most certainly, if Donald Trump was the President of a baseball club, he'd say "Go ahead, steal their signals if you can."
Which is why most people think, "If I was Trump, I would've blackmailed Ukraine into providing dope on Biden. IS THAT WRONG??
The surprise is that not only does Trump get away with it and set a bad example, it's rare when ANYONE faces up to an obvious moral failing.
Several teams have fired their managers recently; ones who were involved in the steal-signals scandal.
The latest? Useless trophy manager Carlos the Jackal Beltran, hired by the New York Mets not because he has any brains, but because he has a star name that might help drive idiots into Queens to watch a baseball game. Muy bueno! Es Carlos Beltran!
Now he's gone, without having managed a single game.
Beat reporters aren't surprised in the least. Because corruption and chicanery are part of baseball as they are almost ALL of politics.
Usually baseball teams look the other way when their players juice up with steroids. (Everyone does it). Or have sex scandals. Or start getting violent. The shrug is that it's part of human nature. What Carlos and his amigos did was just a little bit of...cheating. You know, like some guy on the swimming team being a little RAPEY with a drunken co-ed behind a garbage dump.
If the crime is massive enough (let's point to Dr. Larry Nassar, the touchy-feely guy who examined underage Olympians), then there's no room for "Was that wrong?"
Larry couldn't pull a George Costanza after fingering and abusing dozens of girls on examining tables. He still felt that maybe he was misunderstood? Should get off with a light sentence?
Nice to see that the New York Mets reacted to Beltran in the "old school" way, like the Black Sox Scandal of yore. Then again, Carlos the Jackal may have already given them second thoughts about his incompetence, lack of morality, and high price for a marquee name.
Meanwhile, oddsmakers say Trump will win a second term, despite the impeachment.
