If Donald Trump wins the presidency this November it appears documentary filmmaker Ken Burns might need to be fitted out for a straitjacket. If you have any doubt of this, then take a look below at the unhinged rant Burns performed during his commencement speech at Stanford University yesterday. Rather than ditching outright partisanship for the day out of respect for the victims of the tragic terrorist attack in Orlando, Burns decided to stick with his prepared speech to declare his crazed obsession about Trump.
The self-proclaimed "yellow dog Democrat" just couldn't give politics a rest yesterday of all days. The speech was also especially egregious in view of the fact that Burns is largely dependent on taxpayer based funding from PBS and he just insulted at least half the people paying for his career. Here is Burns, looking at times like he is about to leap out of his thin skin, as he delivers a political campaign speech disguised as commencement address:

Shut up, Ken.
Yep. Ol Burnsie’s gotta keep that Gravy Train runnin
He’s always looked like a little girl to me. Even the mustache doesn’t change that.
Went to a screening of one of his films at CalTech and he did the same thing. Just assumed everybody agreed with him.
Stanford? That’s pretty rare air for just another lefty propagandist.
I always thought he looked like a lesbian.
LMAO.
Hope his head explodes on election night when Trump wins.
Just another SP Capo!
The saddest thing: All those Stanford students and faculty yelling and cheering his rant.
alpha male he is not, poor widdle guy.
So what? He knows we don't pay for PBS by choice and he'll get the money from us regardless. So why not show his contempt for us? What's he got to lose? Nothing, we go on funding him because the government forces us to.
Ken Burns proves himself to be a babbling moron..... and his films are waaaaayy over-rated, pompous, verbose, and plodding.

His girly head will IMPLODE - such is the nature of a vacuum!
Don’t be surprised when he-she-it announces a gender transition and expects to be named Woman of the Year.
I loved his Civil War one. Everything after that has bored me to tears. He even made the old west boring. That's a rare gift.
Good call. Ken Burns rocked the lesbian look before Justin Bieber.
