Who said what this week

“Imagine if Donald Trump was a woman. You simply can’t.” Guardian columnist Hadley Freeman “To call Trump a con man, as many have, is a disservice to the art of the con. By its definition, a con requires deceit. But Trump has not tried to hide his lies or the sheer unrealistic audacity of his cartoonish policy positions.” Dan Rather takes to Facebook to defend the integrity of fraudsters “It would be basically, are you prepared to die? If that’s OK, then you’re a candidate for going.” Elon Musk on the chief criterion for being the first person to go to Mars “. . . some said we deserved to be lynched or shot just like the other black people that have died recently. Another believed that since we didn’t want to stand for the anthem, we should be hung before the anthem for the next game.” Nebraska Cornhusker Michael

Rose-Ivey tearfully relates some of the reaction he received after kneeling to protest police violence “We have to respect . . . the decision of the British people. Of course that doesn’t mean giving a blank cheque to Theresa May and her three-legged team of fractious Brexiteers as they try to work up a negotiating plan and squabble about whose turn it is to have the Chevening country retreat each weekend.” U.K. Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn urges his party to “end the trench warfare” and unite against the Conservatives “As Dr. Martin Luther King said, ‘There comes a time when silence is betrayal.’ I won’t be silent.” Serena Williams speaks out on police violence
