Former Democratic Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, a 2020 hopeful, said he once watched an X-rated film with his mother during a town hall Wednesday night.

Hickenlooper was asked about a piece in his book in which he says he came home from college to a table full of food cooked by his mother. Hickenlooper said he told his mother he and his friend had already purchased tickets to an X-rated film, titled “Deep Throat,” so he asked his mother if she would like to come along, as her husband had just died and he says he did not want her to be lonely. ...

Hickenlooper claims to not have known how graphic X-rated films are, before buying the ticket. ...

Does anyone really care what this NO NAME did in his forgotten life?  Where do they dredge these people up from?  Really!

Hickenlooper sounds like a crude term you’d find on the urban dictionary site, anyway.

I never saw the movie in question, but suspect there was a certain amount of hickenlooping therein depicted.

We know he has been a protected little snowflake his whole life,but you would think the title would have been a good first hint. ESPECIALLY to a male of college age.

Can't connect any dots beyond this because it just starts to get so creepy it gives me the shakes.

He's a no name now, but he's figured out how to stand out from a crowded field and identify personally with people who watch porn.  It's creepy and icky but it got our attention.

“He is of the mindset that the more his name is dropped, the more a kind of hypnosis, for lack of a better word, there is to the American public,” Jim Dowd, the CEO of Dowd Ink, who did public relations for Trump from 2004 to 2010, told me in a recent interview. “He thinks even a negative piece is a positive for him.”

“I can’t explain it any other way,” said an aide to a Republican member of Congress who has hesitantly backed Trump. “They don’t care that this thing is a mess, as long as people are paying attention to it.”

November 8 is shaping up to be a referendum on a question Trump has pressed to its limits.

“Is there such thing as bad publicity?” Neal Hartman of the MIT Sloan School of Management wrote earlier this year. “Donald Trump’s campaign appears to be a test case in whether this old adage is true or not.”

“We’ll know,” Hartman told me, “on Election Day.”

Maybe he's on to something.

Just once, it would be nice to discuss something without an irrelevant reference to Trump being foisted upon us. We're talking about Hickenlooper here.

At this point, about 25 other socialists, from Squaw Warren to LuckyCharms O'Rourke.

Curious, did he and mom walk out, or did they stay for the whole thing?
