Comey Critiques Trump Soul Food
The Dow fell 450 points after President Trump tweeted threats to bump tariffs on $200 billion of China stuff from 10% to 25%. He also weighed in on the Kentucky Derby and Bob Mueller.
Trump Soul Food
But the president’s not alone in letting people know what he thinks. James Comey wrote an op-ed for the NYT claiming Trump eats Attorney General Barr’s soul in small bites.
Maximum Security Instant Replay Interference
Maximum Security doesn’t know he finished 17th in the Kentucky Derby. He still thinks he won. But, after reviewing the instant replay for 22 minutes, track officials ruled interference and disqualified the winner for the first time in the 145 year history of the Run for the Roses.
The instant replay showed Mad Max drifted out of his lane and hip checked War of Will. That caused a chain reaction slowing other horses. Thus the 17th place finish for Maximum Security. He also kicked mud on the horses behind him. Country House, a 65-1 shot, was named the winner.
Trump Maximum Security Tweet
President Trump tweeted that the ruling was “politically incorrect.”
Owner Gary West appealed but was denied. Now he says he’ll sue. But Max doesn’t know anything about that either.
