Karen McDougal affair story won the day. No other election google search came close

I've been watching to see which was the political story of the day. There was so much yesterday. Unfortunately nobody seems to care much about Guiliani, but the email story is nowhere to be seen. (Yay!)

Right after the evening news ran the Karen McDougal story rocketed to #4 on google trends. The vast majority of other searches are sports related. Nothing negative on HRC other than mayyyybe Trump whining about Jay-Zs language.

Trump's affair was the story today. Interest spiked in the morning and ran all day. Fine by me.

Fellow analytical nerds--check it out. It's currently #4 most searched.

PS if I told you spirit cooking won the day yesterday would you believe me?

Mr. Trump and American Media Chairman and Chief Executive Officer David J. Pecker are longtime friends. Since last year, the Enquirer has supported Mr. Trump’s presidential bid, endorsing him and publishing negative articles about some of his opponents.

In a written statement, Mr. Pecker said that it is no secret that he and Mr. Trump are friends and that he greatly admires him.

even though he's routinely bobbled questions related to christianity. to them it's just about whatever lie they have to convince themselves of in order to vote for him, many of them have proven that they have no values.
