‘A good movie that lasts too long.’

Media Add comments

I’m at my wits end. Why don’t reporters actually write down what I say instead of changing everything around?

Yesterday I was asked about the grueling length of the campaign and I said it has become like “a good movie that lasts too long. You’re full of popcorn, you need to go to the bathroom, the sound is too loud, something is stuck to the bottom of your shoe, the people behind you are talking too loud, and you can’t even remember the plot.”

So, what do they report? The campaign is like “a good movie that lasts a half hour too long.”

That’s not what I said. A half hour? For crying out loud, with all of Hillary’s bitching, moaning, and back biting, this campaign as been more like a John Carpenter weekend movie marathon with previews of every Wes Craven film.

Half an hour? Not.

Newspaper reporters should be required to carry a video camera instead of a notepad.
