Version 2.245

Since the Portuguese Presidential election is going on, why don't the media do a profile on each candidate. I'd like to see their history, how much money they have, where it came from, where it is. What activities they had in their youth that shaped them as individuals, etc. What stains do they have? What mistakes have they made? It would be nice to know if they had a history of cheating on their partners, maybe a saucy little recording. I don't know, the kind of weird things that Americans care about.

After all, it is only fair that after spending almost 5 years hearing Portuguese people complaining about the disgrace that Donald Trump is, his loose morals, corruption, etc., the Portuguese candidates should be subjected to the same level of scrutiny. Let's see if they hold up. Let's see if the Portuguese people are that much better than Americans. Let's see if the Portuguese media are as competent as American media. To be competent you don't just make deals with The New York Times; competency is doing investigative reporting like The New York Times.
