Public Comment

Donald Trump has started the new year with a big bang with his comment,“I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose any voters, O.K.?” – meaning most of his supporters embrace anarchy and the rule of law? 

In a race to the bottom, the Teflon Trump, spews his outrageous comments to the hungry media which repeatedly regurgitates them as entertainment value to its readers and viewers. Thus, Trump gains free publicity and – yes, more support playing to a segment of an angry population frustrated that their American dream is rapidly fading. 

Not surprisingly, the founder of Palintology, a new language harking from the “paleontology era”, Sarah Pain, has endorsed her hero, shrieking “Trump’s candidacy, it has exposed not just that tragic ramifications of that betrayal of the transformation of our country, but too, he has exposed the complicity on both sides of the aisle that has enabled it, O.K.? Well, Trump, what he’s been able to do, which is really ticking people off, which I’m glad about, he’s going rogue left and right, man, that’s why he’s doing so well.” Small wonder that Stephen Colbert, preparing a rendition of Palin on The Late Show, had to first fry part of his brain that formulates sentence structure with a Taser gun.
