I'm really sad that I didn't write it here

When Trump entered the race, I said on a stupid comments section somewhere that his worst contribution will have been to make Mark Cuban realize that he, too, should run for President.

I would have liked to taken credit for that comment but it no longer exists on the interwebz



This is blowhard-on-blowhard crime, and America is getting hosed.

I remember a day when TV journalism claimed to have a wall between the news division and the entertainment division. They said, we have to cover Madonna to get viewers, but we realize it is not real news.

The viewers did not think of it that way; and now we have shall have prime time game show hosts leading us.

Game show hosts. It still may be marginally better than lawyers.

And when I say Madonna, I mean the next junior Senator from the great state of Michigan.

Moved?

I thought it was well-homed. But I still managed to find it.


It's a very Brave, very New World.

I hope we get an Ivanka Trump v Kate Middleton mud wrestling match out of it.

Alex Trebek would make a better leader.

Moved from Politics to Entertainment with a permanent re-direct.

In this case I've used my mod powers to make an editorial statement
