But didn’t CNN vault him to the head of the pack with its continuous coverage of no one but him (and 100 views of Hillary stumbling at the 9/11 memorial…)? Isn’t the head of CNN an old pal of his that Trump recommended for the job?

How weak he is to need people to clap and cheer for him every time he’s in public.

Imagine our lives if we all had to be accompanied by cheerleaders just for showing up.

In other words, the only people Trump can find who agree that he’ll be tougher on Russia than Hillary Clinton are either family or the loyalists, flunkies, and minions he pays to stroke his ego.

And THIS is what the Left was trying to get through to the slavering press corps during the campaign. Humoring someone who appears to have onset dementia along with NPD was a very dangerous route to go down. No, he wasn’t going to get more presidential as time went on. No, his handlers weren’t going to be able to control him. No, any favor you curry with him will always be precarious and ultimately, not worth it.

Yes, he will be / is spinning out of control and it’s only January 2017.

Anybody else remember Laurie Anderson’s amazing '82 album “Big Science”?

And its hypnotic piece “From The Air”?

Which begins with the lyrics:

“This is your Captain.
We are about to attempt a crash landing.
Please extinguish all cigarettes.
Place your tray tables in their upright, locked position.
This is your Captain — and we are going down.
We are all going down, together.”

And ends with:

“There…is…no…pilot.”

Pretty much where we are at this point.

Putin was going to be our pilot but I think he parachuted out when he realized he’d picked the wrong dark horse.

You have to admit Putin is at least as good at his shtick as Jeff Dunham. Of course it helps having funnier puppets to work with.

Yes. Great album.

I wish I still had my vinyl copy of it, and United States I-IV, and Mister Heartbreak, and the 12" promo with the full/extended version of William Burroughs performing Sharkey’s Night and, etc.

The unraveling may be starting, with all the info coming out about the Russians. Eventually we may see what the KGB saw when they taped Donald in his hotel room. We know it ain’t pretty.

Well, the Republican “debates” were WWE wrestling events, and his rallies added a high school pep rally element to the WWE. The staffers laughing and clapping were just the junior version.
