Okay, Donnie, you win.
Im moving out.
Not moving out of the country not yet anyway. Im merely moving out of one of New Yorks many buildings slathered in equal portions with gratuitous gold and the name Trump. Nine largely happy years with an excellent staff and an excellent reputation (until recently, anyway) but Im out of here.
Im getting out because of the degree to which the very name Trump has degraded the public discourse and the nation itself. I cant hear, or see, or say that name any longer without spitting. Frankly, Im running out of Trump spit.
And, yes, Im fully aware that Im blaming a guy with the historically unique fashion combination of a cheap baseball cap and Oompa Loompa makeup for coarsening politics even though, out of the two of us, Im the one who has promulgated a Worst Persons in the World list for most of the past decade. Thats how vulgar this has all become. Its worse even than Worst Persons.
This is the campaign of a PG-rated cartoon character running for president, interrupting a string of insults the rest of us abandoned in the seventh grade only long enough to resume a concurrent string of half-crazed boasts: Were gonna start winning again! Were gonna build an eleventy-billion-foot-high wall! Were not gonna pay a lot for this muffler!
All this coarseness is largely masking the truth that the Trump campaign is entirely about coarseness. Take away the unmappable comb-over and the unstoppable mouth and the Freudian-rich debates about genitalia, and there is no Trump campaign. Donald Trumps few forays into actual issues suggest he is startlingly unaware of how the presidency or even ordinary governance works.

“degraded the public discourse”
One of The Most Laughable Statements Ever
Esp considering who it’s coming from
Hey Obie, taken that blue pill lately?
The Washington Post published this??
Keith who?
Get him outa here. Confiscate his deposit.
Liberals make ALL their economic decisions based on their politics. Idiots.
“Won’t eat at Chick-fil-A, they treat gays badly.”
“Won’t ... because ....gays.”
Fired by ESPN
I thought Olbermann moved to Canada in 2001?
I’m sure he would like living in an Islamic hellhole instead. /sarc
Fired by ESPN for being too conservative?
I want coarse...I want rude.....
But most of all I want effective....
Trump is all the above....
Destroy the Federal lobbying machine pandered to by both sides...Gut the Federal government and get rid of the bloat.....Tear the M.F. down!
I despise the GOPe more than the Democrats... at least the Democrats have been honest as to what they are.... The Repubs have been lying and manipulating us for years....
Get rid all the Repub leadership from Mitch McConnell to Paul Ryan on down! They are liars, cheats and just general scumballs who have sold their electorate and this country down the $hithole to maintain power and enrich their own pockets...
Enough already! Let’s get the tar and feathers ready!
Bye bye KO - we never liked you anyways.
Don’t let the screen door hit ya on your way out.
absolutely
Keith who?
It’s great when you can get rats to deport themselves.
Katy Tur is still a leftist biting at Trump’s heels. I watched her in action a month or two ago.
He can move to Detroit, a democratic paradise.
So did Olbermann lose his lease and is trying to make lemonade out of lemons? (No idea if this is true so it must be MSM ready.)
MSNBC found him unemployable... That says it all.
