Saw this headline on the interwebs this morning. Forget about which side you're on in the upcoming election for a moment, and give a good look at former First Lady Barbara Bush's statement there.
Wouldn't it have been infinitely better— and much less cringe-inducing— if the closing quotation mark came after "Trump?"
Or maybe it's not the mistake of a harried copywriter who's doing the work of six employees after his company downsized, and Babs reeeeeeally isn't a fan of the 19th Amendment.

This Church Marquee Confuses Me
I don't understand this local church marquee. "GODS AT WAR?" What the hell is that supposed to mean?
Do they mean the old saw that God's mad at all the corruption and debauchery going on here on Earth and is going to war against all us sinners, yadda yadda yadda? If so, yawn. Heard that song before.
Or is it referring to actual gods at war, like Zeus and Thor beating the crap out of one another? If so, then they've got something there. That would be awesome!
Punctuation, people! It's important!
