Libyan Driver's Perspective and Trump Quitting Satire
Adam Curry recounts a conversation with a Libyan driver in Austin named Tawfiq, who expressed that life was better under Muammar Gaddafi despite his dictatorship. The discussion then shifts to a satirical article from the Charlotte Observer claiming Donald Trump quit the race to reveal the gullibility of Republican voters. This satire is linked to actual efforts by neocons like Bill Kristol to push for a third-party candidate.
