Though in fact he did mention Secretariat in his victory speech, and the bronze statue in the paddock. I think Sham might have been a little more appropriate.

Trump mentioned Secretariat in his post election speech at 3AM.

Guess you could have just deleted the post as a response.

BTW, Cornell is offering Play-doh to grief-stricken students. Time for a road trip?

Anybody who has not lived under a rock for the last 30 years, racing fan or not, knows who Secretariat was.
He also said there is a bust of Secretariat at Belmont. Either he doesn\'t know the difference between a bust and a full statue or he is mixing up his facts again.

Trump was at Derby a few years with his to be wife Melania. They were there together in the old Turf Club and appeared to have come alone. Casually enjoying the scene. I actually caught her checking me out.

They were friendly. He was having a good time. Leave it at that.

If that isn\'t a political post I don\'t know what is. I guess your the only one allowed to do that.

Your analogy of comparing a lower takeout to Trump\'s plan to mainly lower taxes on the super rich like himself and his friends is incorrect. His plan is more like mainly lowering the takeout on big bettors. If your going to make inappropriate political posts, please get your facts straight.

You talking to me?? I didn\'t post on that subject at all, unless I\'m really getting senile. And as tempting as it is, I\'m not going after your ridiculous analogy. This stuff ends here.

I was responding to Paolo\'s post. It was also a reference to the fact that his political post was allowed to remain up despite your stated policy.

The only ridiculous analogy was that of Paolo\'s unless you wish to defend that against valid criticism.

For your analogy to hold high earners would have to be paying a lower tax rate than lower earners, just for starters. Enough, I mean it.
