Did he go through a phase wherein he was way into the work of Charles Bukowski? Did he talk a lot about how he wanted to move to Paris because Henry Miller? So many possible scandals!
Anyway, some dude at proposed to his girlfriend at CPAC, asking her to "make marriage great again" after meeting her there two years ago when she was 18 and he was 30. It's terrible on SO MANY LEVELS!

UPDATE 7: 10 EST:OK! Thought this might have been more interesting, but the polls just closed a hot minute ago and Joe Biden has already been declared the winner because exit polling. That was fairly anti-climactic, but congratulations Biden fans!
