Go Trump Yourself

I didn't watch the debate, instead I Netflixed That 70's Show (which I'll do a post on soon) and The Ranch (same).

Nothing that happened in last night's debate will change anything. Already the biggest takeaway is Mr. Trump's refusal to accept the election results outright. This is being portrayed as a blunder by the usual suspects but it fits right in with his 'system is rigged' message.

Hilariously (pun unintended till I wrote it, at which point I saw the pun) the Dems are screaming bloody murder about this. Really guys? You recall, don't you how Algore tried to steal the election in 2000 right? Don't you remember Babs Boxer delaying the Ohio vote count results for a day in 2004? You're the ones who made 'voting irregularities) part of the political vocabulary.

'Sore/Looserman' is the best bumper sticker since 'Vote for Cuomo/he's no homo'. Go ahead and google that last one.

So suck it.

Interestingly we see polls showing Hillary! ahead, but we see three tracking polls, Rass, IBD and LA-Times showing Mr. Trump. I've been watching and dissecting polls for a long time, and I don't know what to make of that. Once more, someone is really wrong.

Post Debate Thoughts on Mr. Trump

Well, Mr. Trump certainly cleaned Hillary!'s clock, didn't he.

Here's what he did.

-First, the whole 'lewd tape' controversy is dead.
-Second, now the matter of Bill Clinton's status as sexual predator and Hillary! his enabler is alive and kicking.
-Third, he debated Hillary! and the moderators and kicked ass in true Trumpian, dare I say, Putian style.

Now at this point, one is tempted to make excuses for Mr. Trump and and equivocate and....

Ahh, hell with it, I don't give a crap.

Trump: Make American Great Again!

Nirvana and U-2 Songs

I didn't watch the debates. I never watch the debates. Instead I did the patriotic thing and watched a Canadian baseball team.

Here's what people are talking about:

-The fly that landed on Hillary.

-Trump's great one liner.

-Bill's sexual assault victims.

Trump won.

BTW, if anyone gets the two musical references in the title I'll send them autographed copies of all my books.

Debate This!

Look, folks, I didn't watch, OK. I haven't watched one of these things since 2004. Why do that to myself?

Also, I was flat on my back with gout, so I got that going for me, you know, which is nice.

Here is what I can tell you about American debates.

We all remember Michael Dukakis' great policy ideas in the '88 debates, and Dan Quayle really showing how he was ready to lead that same year. Hey, I loved how Algore buried W under a barrage of facts and policy proscriptions. Remember how Jean Francois Kerry showed how he could lead on the international stage in 2004?

I kid, I kid, but that's my point.

Here's what everyone remembers about the '88 debate:

And Quayle in '88:

Algore in 2000:

And Jean Francois Kerry (A-Hole, MA)

All I could find was this ad.

Jesus Christ, Algore, 'What about Dingle-Norwood?' and this man was almost president. Dingle-Norwood, who gives a crap?!

My own sense is that last night's debate will be remembered for Lester Holt being Hillary!'s lick-spittle. Too bad, I always liked Holt. Mr. Trump's people will no doubt take some clips from last night and cut ads with them, showing Mr. Trump looking composed and presidential.

So unless Mr. Trump pulled off his pants and slapped his dick down on the podium, and I say, why not? He probably won.
