yes...Yes...YES!!! THE DONALD is IN!!!

Oh Lordy.
Be still my heart.
My wildest dream has come true.


BONUS!
He looks like he may be polling high enough to make the Fox 10 Debates cut.
Oh how lovely that would be.


Right up there on a national (more or less) stage with the rest of the "serious" repug candidates.

Flinging hand grenades left and right.
OK, maybe right and farther right.

Loose cannon?
Naw, we're talking an entire loose artillery battalion in circular firing position.

I really don't know what I did to deserve this.
Maybe I've just been living right?
No, probably not.
Whatever.


Thank you Fate, Karma, Gods and Goddeses, and of course The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

I imagine the GOPers' money men are shitting railroad spikes because nothing anybody can do or say will make The Donald go away. He's got an ego the size of the Hindenburg (and his hair is probably made of cellulose nitrate dope and it does not appear to be grounded), and he wants his chance to bestow his brilliance and his Secret Plan to get rid of ISIS upon his adoring subjects. Because he is Famous in a Kardashian sort of way, he will suck the oxygen out of the debate (or maybe use it all up when his hair explodes), leaving the other candidates gasping for publicity. The other candidates are also some combination of sociopathic, dumb as stumps and/or barking mad, but in a much less hilarious way, so The Donald will command the attention of the lazy media while the slightly less demented candidates get short shrift. The "serious" GOPers (i.e., the moneybags) will hate this, but I will love it.

On Tweety's show, discussing the arrogance of Trump's endless idiotic pursuit of Pres Obama's birth certificate.

President Carnival Barker.

once he's asked to disclose his financial records it'll be all over...he'll give an excuse, something about his business empire needs him or some such stupidity. It'll be fun while it lasts though.

and I notice the edifice has flattened out a bit, too.

He's still an overpaid moron.

From his manager, Elliot Roberts: “Donald Trump’s use of “Rockin’ in the Free World” was not authorized. Mr. Young is a longtime supporter of Bernie Sanders.”

SNL will be awesome this fall. Late night talk show hosts will have a hey day. The Comedy Central and HBO comics will have loads of fun.

Comedy has never had so much to work with. I love presidential elections!
