Election 2016: Like a George Kennedy Disaster Film



When this election cycle started I signed up for both party's email lists and every one of the candidates on both sides.  Early on I was receiving many emails, mostly looking for money, and some emails containing few hard details on stances.  However, we are now in the semi-finals for the candidates and the Democrats are firing off emails by the dozens everyday.  Here is a quote from an email I received today from Christina Reynolds the Deputy Communications Director at Hillary for America. 

"Donald Trump’s ideas aren’t just different—they are dangerously incoherent. They’re not even really ideas—just a series of bizarre rants, personal feuds, and outright lies. He is not just unprepared—he is temperamentally unfit to hold an office that requires knowledge, stability, and immense responsibility."

When I read the above passage I just about fell out of my chair with laughter.  I am NOT a Trump fan; he has done nothing during this campaign to make me want to continue to support him.  I think that if he is elected then the Republican party will be sidelined from the White House for a generation.  I also do not necessarily disagree with the message of the passage.  The farce being played out here is that this is coming from the Hillary campaign.  



You would have to be the shambling and reanimated corps of Sigmund Freud to even begin to fully deconstruct the problems I have with this message.  Let's try this on for size:

"Hillary Clinton's ideas aren’t just different—they are dangerously incoherent. They’re not even really ideas—just a series of bizarre rants, personal feuds, and outright lies. She is not just unprepared—she is temperamentally unfit to hold an office that requires knowledge, stability, and immense responsibility." 

I think that Donald Trump keeps Hillary Clinton up at night because they are the same person.  From shady business dealings, lies stacked on lies, nonsense strings of words coming out of their mouths, terrible hair, and expensive clothes.  I think that if Hillary Clinton received a gender reassignment procedure she would be Donald Trump with a different pin on her... I mean his lapel.

Hillary's email list of complaints seem like a shopping list of her own short comings.
