Good grief, what a putz. Or putz-head, as D’Amato would have said.
The reality is that the political class, including the elected, the pundits, and the media that follow them, are not of the superior intellectual stature that they’ve lived their lives thinking they were. Not even remotely close, on their very best day, when the sun was shining. We’ve been putting the least qualified people in our nation in office for a very long time. If you gave enough media access and money to pretty much anyone from your block, they could take on the political elites. It’s long past time that politics becomes again ‘national service’, as opposed to a means to make narcissists happy about themselves.
I actually watched that pathetic fool.
