I’ve avoided all of the debates.
Last night, circumstances were such that I saw nearly the first hour of the latest Republican party debate.
I have just one simple question:
Are you people who favor Trump out of your minds?
I have no idea what delusional La-La-Land that guy’s mind inhabits, but it’s nothing like the one that’s bounded by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
I’m a native New Yorker. Trump is considered an asshole here. Always has been.
Last night, he plumbed new depths of being an asshole.
As for the other candidates, if that’s the best America can do, we might as well line up just like they did in Jonestown and drink some poisoned Kool-Aid. It’s all over for us.
This is the endgame of arrested-development politics. When you’ll do anything to get elected, to grab power, you eventually wind up with a roster composed of nothing but soulless whores.
And that’s what I saw last night.
We should be ashamed of ourselves.
But I think this country has become so warped, no one understands what the hell shame even is.
If Thomas Jefferson could see what’s going on, he’d surely say God is finally taking out his vengeance on us.
Tremble.
