There’s a good editorial in the STrib today about Donald Drumpf’s abject incompetence and nailing journalists for not reporting it, not holding him accountable, not exposing it, and the bottom line:
Here’s the full OpEd:
This headline puts it well, and “incoherent gibberish” is exactly the sort of thing we often heard from Sarah Palin. It is just bunches of words, often code words a la Wallace’s hate speech, puked out and strung together, and it does not make any sense. Read it. Worse, read it out loud!
What does it mean when there’s such strong support for someone who cannot even speak sufficiently well to communicate a coherent thought? What does this say about his thought process if this is what comes out? And what does it say about media, where reporters do not raise their eyebrows, screw up their snouts, and say, “WHAT?” “What did you say?” “What do you mean?” “What you said makes no sense, what are you trying to say?” “What on earth are you talking about?”
Here’s the transcript of his meeting with the Washington Post editorial board, something that I want to preserve in case they disappear it, it’s that _________ (scary? mind boggling? bizarre? inexplicable?).
I’m confident that he will not be elected President, one way or another, but that he is regarded as a contender, and that he is commanding so much of our country’s collective time, OH MY DOG!
