There is no cure for the Touch of Death, or Dim Mak as it's known in those cheesy martial arts movies.
Legend and comic books tell us that it is a precise and forceful strike, with delayed yet fatal result, sometimes taking days or weeks to do its work.
It is subtle, quick, almost unseen, and usually delivered by a monk or some warrior priest with a topknot. Uma Thurman used it to great effect in "Kill Bill: Vol 2." When she was done, she flashed a smirk of wistful sadness.
That's what happened to Donald Trump's presidential campaign, which received the Touch of Death from Megyn Kelly, the warrior priestess of Fox News.

Lyn Cassady: There’s a story that Wong Wifu, the great Chinese martial artist... had a fight with a guy and beat him. Then the guy gave him this light tap. Wong looked at him and the guy just nodded. That was it. He had given him the death touch. Wong died.
Bob Wilton: Then and there?
Lyn Cassady: No. About eighteen years later. That’s the thing about Dim Mak... you never know when it’s gonna take effect.

This from the rag published in Obama’s American home town (as opposed to his Kenyan hometown). Has this ship of fools ever been correct?

Wow...I would have thought 3 tours of duty and a university edjimication would have given me a little more worldly wisdom (except for the difference between a crack pipe and a test tube)...
Jeez, have I fallen behind the times, or what?!?

I missed that one. When did he reference that?
Was Megyn showing signs?

Wait, do the Trump boosters seriously believe that he wasn’t referring to menstruation when he referred to Megyn Kelly having “blood coming out of her wherever”?
It’s one thing to not care; it’s another thing to actually believe him when he says that he was referring to her “nose”.

From thehill.com
Trumps support increased by 7 points to 32 percent, according to this weeks Morning Consult tracking poll.
The real estate moguls closest rival Jeb Bush lost a point, dipping to 11 percent of the vote among self-identified Republicans and Republican-leaning independents.
Support for all other candidates was in the single-digits

Despite receiving a Death Blow, Trump continues to rise in the polls.
It’s “unexpected”.

Ah, finally we're getting down to how politics REALLY works.

Glenn Beck has used that saying for years. OFTEN saying he was SOOO angered by something that he had blood spurting from his eyes.
His other figure of speech was that his head had exploded or was about to. He’s used both of them, OFTEN.

I have used it for years...having grown up catching the little critters. I never imagined it was used in relation to menstruation. Seems to be an anachronism...

Yes, well, it seems you’re right. Rush seems to have wimped out on today’s program. He had NO criticism of you that I could detect before I turned off the radio.
