What is the most important question for a presidential candidate:"Were you wearing a helmet while bicycling?"
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/01/15/opinion/andrew-yang-nytimes-interview.html
Kathleen Kingsbury: Wonderful. Thank you. Yeah. So I have a serious question to ask you, but first we wanted to ask, were you wearing a helmet while you were biking here? Mr. Yang biked to the Times from his Manhattan home. More New York City cyclists died biking in 2019 than in any other year since 2000; Gothamist counts 29 deaths. Yang: I was wearing a helmet. I have a staffer with the helmet as proof. Jesse Wegman: Is the inside of the helmet warm? My team then had me take the helmet off and then tried to make my hair look good. So that’s why I didn’t show up with the helmet. KK: It looks sharp. |

NYT: So tell us, Donald, did you wear a helmet when you came down the escalator? The President of the United States: What a sad depth you've sunk to. |

Bombing commences in five minutes. |

If she actually grew up here, KK would be familiar with the thermal properties of helmets. We locals never ask about helmet temperature because we know better -- that's how we spot tourists. -- Jay Beattie. |

From the quote, Jesse Wegman asked about the helmet being warm. KK just thought Yang's hair looked sharp. True, my fault for heading to the NR too quickly and reading about KK spontaneous way of writing Presidential endorsements, then forgetting to look up Wegman. Kingsbury only started the helmet topic. Wegman cannot be blamed because he just has a law degree. I also pardon him so he may continue in trying to keep James Dailey from getting killed. If she actually grew up here, KK would be familiar with the thermal properties of helmets. We locals never ask about helmet temperature because we know better -- that's how we spot tourists. Tourists in Portland? I was under the impression all the tourists you get there have organic dreadlocks-helmets, and must be making fun of the shivering showerspass+styrofoam roadies?! |

The tourists tend to be ernest creatives who take Segway tours. They walk up to me and touch my Showers Pass jacket and ask "Mr. Native, what is that strange garment you are wearing." Then they want to touch my hair and get a selfie with me at Voodoo Doughnuts. Fame is overrated. You have no idea what it's like. |
