feel, this goes back to the campaign, having seen it at the beginning. they wanted to control their own narrative. they did it better than george bush did it before him. or bill clinton, god knows, had done it before that. they won without, for the most part, having to reveal what they didn t want to reveal. or tell stories they didn t want to tell. don t forget, this say president who basically wrote his own campaign biography, years before he ever ran for office. yes, he did. he s used to controlling the narrative. and that is the mantra of this white house. and they have done it better in a more focused fashion than any administration i ve ever seen. and at this point, i ve seen a lot of them. someone who is quite good at the twitter. howard fineman, thank you for stopping by. thank you toure. up next, is china coming for us, and are they just one click away? mine was earned in djibouti, africa, 2004.
basketball with friends and like minded supporters, but is this the kind of thing that matters anywhere? i m not going to pick on president obama this time because he s had a really bad week. the first lady being in spain and all the controversy that that had come to it, the fact that he played some h basketball with some basketball player, yes, they donated money to his campaign, but i hope he had a good birthday, i hope he had a good weekend. it was pretty brutal other than that. i do notice republicans are not borrowing at term about this from the bush years, which was slam dunk. so it s just as well to just leave this one along. this is kind of local but also interesting. michael vaughn is doing what you might call fancy moves to explain his playing a rear or lack of one with the dallas cowboys. the washington city paper pointed out vaughn s official campaign biography claimed he plays three years with the cowboys.
