☆ Reading the Signs in New Hampshire
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-22 | by ( Lisa Lerer | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: 1 min

If you want to understand the New Hampshire primary, stand at the corner of West Broadway and Valley Street in Derry, N.H. There are two huge yard signs — one for Nikki Haley and one for Donald Trump — on adjacent houses. Not exactly: When my colleague Michael Bender headed there recently, neighbors told him that the pro-Haley house had been vacant for years, and that political campaigns often planted their signs there. The race looks like a real contest, with yard signs and all the usual campaign events. Yet when you dig a little deeper, there’s far less going on than it may seem.

Gail Collins: Bret, I know you’re busy writing about your reporting trip to Israel, and I am looking forward to reading all your thoughts. (I guess that’s another definition for the term “manspreading.”) On the economy, voters prefer Trump over Biden by a 22-point margin. And a whopping 71 percent think Biden is too old to be president, as opposed to just 39 percent for Trump. As a matter of law, I think Trump belongs in jail. Gail: I know Trump appears more energetic, but he’s really only a whole lot louder.

Donald Trump is still living a relaxed lifestyle, despite facing a possible indictment, per NYT. Citing several people who have spent time with Trump in the last few days, The Times reported that the former president was seen cruising around Mar-a-Lago in his golf cart. Trump faces a possible indictment by a New York grand jury, as the Manhattan district attorney's office investigates the hush-money case involving porn star Stormy Daniels. The Times reported that Trump immediately went golfing after making the social media post, leaving his legal team to answer the public's confusion. After golfing on Saturday, Trump then flew to Oklahoma to watch collegiate wrestling, The Times reported.

Trump said privately at Mar-a-Lago that he looks forward to doing a perp walk, per The New York Times. However, it is unlikely that he will be handcuffed or have to do a perp walk. However, a perp walk is not likely to happen if Trump is charged with a crime. Bill Pickle, a former Secret Service special agent, told Insider's Laura Italiano that the perp walk Trump is looking forward to won't happen. The Times reported that he was spotted rolling around on his golf cart and that he also DJ-ed at a party held at his Florida residence.

The Kohl's logo is displayed on the exterior of a Kohl's store on January 24, 2022 in San Rafael, California. Kohl's on Thursday named interim CEO Tom Kingsbury to the post on a permanent basis. He took over as interim CEO in December after former chief executive Michelle Gass decided to leave for Levi Strauss. "The Board appreciates our constructive dialogue with Macellum during the last few months and their engagement as we conducted the CEO search process. We look forward to their continued support and partnership," said Michael Bender, a board director at Kohl's.

Însă Trump nu l-ar fi ascultat şi ar fi insistat asupra acţiunii lui Hitler asupra economiei germane între cele două războaie. Michael Bender precizează în cartea sa că Donald Trump a negat aceste declaraţii. Însă, la câteva luni după acest presupus incident, pe care Michael Bender îl situează în noiembrie 2018, John Kelly a plecat de la Casa Albă.
