If there was a shark that was still circling the wading pool after all the splashing we've been through so far in this political season we would now have jumped it. It's been apparent for some time now that what passes for presidential poltitics has become not only irrelevant, but a continual mockery of itself. All players in the charade have been unmasked and anyone passing for an Emperor can't be that embarrassed to be exposed because all of the exposers are just as unclothed.
So, this should, perhaps mercifuclly, be the final nail in the coffin for what used to be the process of pretending like we were serious when we chose a president. Donald Trump is going to moderate one of the debates.
In earlier times this would have been as laughable as choosing Big Bird or Mickey Mouse. But those times have long passed us by. I take that back. I've just insulted Mickey and the Bird.
I'd say I was sickened by this, but that would imply that there was anything healthy about my response to any of the political shennanigans that go on now that demean the concept of politics.
