The worst thing about watching the jockeying in the republican field, however much it reminds one of Monty Pythonâs upper class twit competition, is that eventually weâll be forced to take one of these characters seriously.

Imagine youâre visiting Portugal or some other civilized nation in a couple years and one of the locals says âOh, your new President is Donald Trump, isnât he?â Pretty quickly you correct the person that youâre from Canada, right?

Yes, itâs not as if there are one or two candidates with whom you disagree politically, but who donât scare the living bejeesus out of you, surrounded by a bunch of half-crazed also-rans. The entire field consists of half-crazed also-rans.

Itâs disconcerting when you start to think John Kasich is the only GOPer approaching sanity.

If you were rich and we âwent redâ the govât would basically be working to serve you and your peersâŚ
At that point you could simply buy your own politicians to do you bidding.
Well, the US has a looooong tradition of random famous personalities capturing the publicâs political imagination. Usuallly they arenât candidates for POTUS, however.
You canât imagine how embarassing it was to be overseas during the Bush years. In one instance, I was at a dinner with a community of english speaking people from England, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand and Austrialia, and the realization that I was the only American, they jokingly put me at a kiddies table by my self aft of a partition, and subsequently shut the partition because of America having unleashed bush on the world. It was very funny at the time, but I felt like it was deserved. At the end of Spring the European Community was being undermined by Grexit which is fallout from the Great Recession a consequence of Bushonomics, now its the end of summer and European Community is hemorrhaging over war refugees, another consequence of Bush policies (the invasion of Iraq). The rest of the world should send America bills for putting @ssholes in power and destroying global civilzation. This isnât even the first time. GOP policies created the Great Depression, which paved the way for the rise of Hitler, which lead to the devastation of Europe.
