I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that Hillary Clinton, who Ladra has absolutely no love for, is going to go down in the books as the Democratic Party nominee elected president with the most Republican votes in U.S. history. Not because of people like me. Yeah, the self-admitted Marco Rubio […]
The front of the card looks normal enough. Except maybe the Baby Jesus might be pouting like Kylie Jenner and making a gang hand symbol, I don’t know. But when you open the Christmas greeting from Southern Strategy Group lobbyist Nelson Diaz — also the Miami-Dade Republican Party Chairman — you realize that the yellow […]
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. While there was more blood spilled at the 5th GOP presidential debate Tuesday night than there has been in the last four previous debates — with more one-on-one challenges — there were still very few moments that seemed like they would make a big difference. There were many serious things […]
As the crowd thins, it’s almost harder to recognize the clear winners and losers in the debate among those who want to represent the Republican Party in next year’s presidential election. But Ladra’s gonna try anyway. It’s late and it was long, so some of these observations may be fuzzy, but here are Ladra’s knee […]
Recent attacks on Marco Rubio’s voting record, personal finances and perspiration have only really underlined one thing very clearly: Most voters have more in common with the Florida senator than any other wannabe for the presidential nomination — in the GOP or the Democratic field. Credit card debt and issues? Been there. Penalties for cashing […]
The third debate for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination Wednesday seems to have been the best showcase so far for the differences between the self-proclaimed conservative candidates who want the White House. Sure, every single one of the A candidates (we’re not even counting the Happy Hour debaters) is the “only one up here” to do […]
That was actually fun! Ladra loved the interaction at the GOP’s debate Wednesday night on CNN, but it’s too late to give a full analysis. We can get to that in the morning. Right now, it’s time for the instant, knee-jerk observations, relevant or not. It felt like they talked about immigration for far too […]
The heat has turned up in recent days as GOP presidential candidates Jeb Bush and Donald Trump hone in on each other with recent jabs and attacks. But Trump is getting a lot more traction on his hits, thanks to his copious use of social media. Meanwhile, if Team Jeb wants to know why they […]
Doral Councilwoman Sandra Ruiz will sponsor a resolution next week condemning billionaire businessman, reality TV star and presidential candidate Donald Trump for his “racist, derrogatory” remarks about Mexicans and immigrants in his campaign announcement speech. Even though other electeds have expressed outrage at the incendiary comments and the county commission passed a similar resolution last month, […]
NBCUniversal employees may soon be banned from Trump National Doral Miami resort and spa and all his other properties, too, now that the network has cut ties to billionaire clown act and GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump and will cease to air the Miss U.S.A. and Miss Universe pageants after The Donald offended Mexicans and all Hispanics in his […]
