Bring Back the Court Jesters

The problem with American politics is that the people demand to be entertained, as they feverishly engorge themselves with Nando, cheesed doodles, along with any number of strong narcotics and booze. More or less, much of America is populated by varmints, both new and old, perverted, slobbish people who festoon their living quarters with degeneracy and live out villainous lives.

Here’s Trump weighing in on NFL kneelers and how owners should deal with them.

Here is the full outburst.

The President has now entered the red zone in politics, messing with her favorite pastime — fool’s ball. Will this latest gambit pay off? Or, will an assault on the CIA’s favorite deflection be his downfall?

My personal opinion, not that it should mean more than anyone else’s, is that the President shouldn’t get up on stages, stumping for people with the last name ‘Strange’ — calling for multi-millionaire fools-ball players to be fired for kneeling during the anthem. Instead, he should’ve dispatched an Anthony Scaramucci type figure onto the public, cursing, using terms like ‘fughetiboutit’, to discuss this very important matter. This jester could’ve said all of the things Trump said, AND MORE, without sapping the office of the Presidency from whatever semblance of dignity it had left in it. For the sake of the nation, and for our cherished institutions, being back the court jester. We’ve already brought back other fine institutions, like family monarch and the aristocracy, feudal lords, and clandestine forms of slavery — why not this?

    You’re correct about most of the American population. And the media and sellers of goods and services have responded to their taste. Media turned a disaster into a reality show, reportedly the trapped girl in the Mexico earthquake was a fabrication.

    To your point about the jester. Donald Trump is brilliant at media and promotion. However his ego seems to prevent him from seeing what nearly every similar talent learns. If you own the brand and your name is on the contract, have a sidekick say or do the things that could cause you harm.

    Why not. They have brought back the Pestilence Tent in Southern California. No joke. Straight out of Deadwood. Open borders meets the “Dreamers” meets mass homelessness meets the fucking plague.

      The Bully Pulpit is alive and well. And Trump just disinvited the entire Golden State Warriors team after Steph Curry said he did not want to go to the WH. #MAGA

    Not smart to demonize white America’s most popular basketball player. But I guess when in Alabama the racist juices just get flowing. At least the oranged moron isn’t supporting Moore. I do soooo hope Moore gets elected and Republicans have to deal with Alabama’s Maxine Waters for 6 years. Praise the Lord and damn those homos and heathens.
