We asked more than two dozen of our favorite journalists, writers, and thinkers: What were the most important events of 2018, and what were the least?
Most Important: Democrats took back the House.
Least Important: Second Lady Karen Pence, whose acronym is actually SLOTUS (let that sink in for a minute), and her daughter Charlotte Pence, released the children’s book, Marlon Bundo’s A Day in the Life of the Vice President. It follows their black-and-white pet rabbit, Marlon Bundo, as he follows ”Grandpa Mike Pence“ around the White House. SLOTUS’s book is pure Pence propaganda under the guise of a benevolent wallflower rabbit.
