Ken Burns has finally emerged following Donald Trump's election victory. It took over a month for that to happen since as Burns described, he "needed some time in the fetal position." Well now that the shock is starting to wear off, an interesting phenomenon has taken place which was noted by Dilbert cartoon creator, Scott Adams: the rapid evaporation of hallucinations of Trump as Hitler previously held by Burns and others.

Post election Ken Burns realized where his bread is buttered and backtracked a bit since his documentaries are funded by the taxpayers. Oops! You bet wrong on the election and it is now mandatory that you eat crow or put your funding at risk.

Fetal-position away, you stupid a@@hole.

[Sacajaweau]

Gosh....Abhor this little bas****.

Effin zoo animal needs to stay in his cage. It’s his safe space.

Hey Ken Burns, why don’t you take your Marxist-loving self on down to Venezuela? Head on down now, permanently, so you can enjoy the fruits of Hillary and Obama politics in real-time.

That's right...Federal government funding of PBS and NPR should *STOP*.If DJT could do that by Executive Order it can happen on 1/21.

Hey little Kenny, better watch that fetal position around your compatriots, might not end well for you.

Hey Moe, get a real man’s haircut...the Three Stooges look just ain’t working.

I’ll bet he had a wet thumb too.

8 years of Trump may just make a man out of this fairy

I would call to Mr Burn’s attention that his reaction to the election of Mr Trump would bear a strong resemblance to the reaction of a class of 1860 Southern slave owners towards the election of one Abraham Lincoln. Just a thought.

The only thing I’d consider funding him for is an anthology series on “Hillary’s Long Road to Prison.” AFTER she is imprisoned, that is.

Fetal position! He's such a little girly-man.

I do like his documentaries though. I really want to not like them but what can I say, I'm a sucker for old photos set to period music with monotone narration.

The sheer enormity of the leftist butthurt since Trump won is amusing beyond my wildest expectations.

'Needed Some Time in the Fetal Position'

Spoken like a true member of the creative class.

[rawcatslyentist]

Now now, credit where due.

He did cure insomnia!

[HiTech RedNeck]

And now to be born again... ?

[FlipWilson]

Ummm, am I the only one who doesn’t really see this as news? I mean this guy probably already spends what, 80-90% of his time in the fetal position anyway. What is the big deal about an extra 1%?

[Fiddlstix]

Fetal position OR Fecal position??
Inquiring minds want to know
