How Trump Taught Everybody to Be Obnoxious and Cruel

Oz’s communications handlers, like those of the Arizona Republican Party, forgot one of the timeless rules of political invective: One can get away with a lot if the insult is leavened by originality, intelligence or humor — or ideally all three.

A recent example with none of those was especially cringeworthy. “What does a dog-cleaner have in common with Kathy Hoffman?” chortled the Arizona GOP in its official Twitter feed. “They are both groomers.”

  1. Oh. "Timeless rules." Hmm. Politics was so much better before Donald Trump broke the "timeless rules."

    What about the timess Noachide rules against abortion and homosexuality.

    Hunh?
