The Scoop for Nov. 27, 2018

Politics is all about relating to your audience. It’s what you do. Take the President. He was in Elvis’s hometown of Tupelo, Mississippi yesterday, and made this connection. He told them, when he was a kid, people said he looked like Elvis. If it’s true, that’s not a bad guy to resemble. I once dressed up as overweight Elvis. I mean, I thought I was just dressing up as Elvis until I saw the pictures… Yeah.

All I wanted to be when I was a kid was a super hero. Heck, I still wouldn’t mind it. But according to Jason Momoa, dressing like a super hero has it’s drawbacks. Like going to the bathroom. It’s tough. And when you, quote, “Have to go poopsies.” you have to lear to hold it. How cute is it to hear beefy Jason Mamoa say Poopsies? One more reason why my wife loves this guy.

Did you see where NASA landed on Mars yesterday? That’s pretty cool right? Well, if you’ve had dreams of going to Mars, Elon Musk and his Space X company wants to take you there. That sounds awesome! Or does it. Elon says, if you go, you’ll be working mostly non-stop to build the station, so there won’t be a lot of leisure time. Oh, and they’re not sure they can bring you back. And you’ll probably die. Well kids, looks like it’s Aunt Melba’s for Spring Break again. Sorry.

Bonus Scoopge:
The Secret Service actually visited Tom Arnold because of some of his Tweets about President Trump. Tom issued a statement in which he thanked the hard work and dedication of the Secret Service after he was apparently paid a visit last month over some of his tweets concerning President Donald Trump. “I heard your message loud and clear,” Arnold said in a statement posted to Twitter. “Words matter.” Very true.
