When the US government criticizes "minority governments" in Europe, do you think it misunderstands Parliamentary democracies? The party of Trump is very much "winner take all" in rhetoric and rarely do its members promote bipartisan policies or values.

Sounds right. Bovino is from Blowing Rock, NC, just 2+ hours west of Charlotte, in the mountains near the Tennessee border.

I was walking with my angelic 5 year old in Zabar's on the upper west side when the 2 counter guys told each other to look at "la blanquita"; I stared at them and said, loudly, "Yo entiendo" and they looked startled, stopped staring at my child, and turned away to their work. Just regular guys.
