Final Word from Wednesday, August 30, 2017



Donald Trump explained on Mon. why he was pardoning Sheriff Joe. "I thought he was treated unbelievably unfairly [by the Obama administration] when they came down with their big decision to go get him right before the election voting started, as you know. And he lost in a fairly close election. He would have won the election, but they just hammered him just before the election." That last sentence is worth repeating: "They just hammered him just before the election." In the end the U.S. president gave us the best translation for "kleknout." Andrej Babiš boasted that his people had "hammered FAU Přerov," and then his political opponents hammered him by releasing the tape of his hammering. "Let them keep hammering each other," said the internet. It's true, the more the hammering, the more voters learn. Except that no matter how much hammering there is, and how much voters learn, the systems ensures that the same hammerers will keep doing the swinging.
