Tonight, at the
A frontrunner whose entire platform, as reinforced by a completely whackadoo collection of random sentences that he spouted on Tuesday night, is that he's him and you're not, and neither are the Supreme Leader of Iran, the president of Mexico, or the CEO of the Ford Motor Company.
A woman who nearly destroyed a hugely respected American brand and got paid something north of $20 million just to go away.
A brilliant neurosurgeon who believes that the Medicaid expansion was the Nuremberg Laws.
A guy who was governor of Florida shortly after Ponce de Leon blew town whose brother pretty much wrecked the country.
A bass-playing Bible-banging hayseed, who's presently campaigning for the rights of faith-based goldbricks to slough off on their government jobs.
Two incredibly unpopular governors, only one of whom is under active criminal investigation at the moment.
One governor who is popular in his state, but unloved by the fans of all these other clucks.
And three senators: a rookie from Florida with a pole up his ass the size of El Capitan; a former brogressive hero who can't make up his mind on the Civil Rights movement, and a Canadian-born, Tex-Mex Joe McCarthy whose only achievement in political office is pissing off Mitch McConnell which, while admirable, is hardly a qualification to have the guy with the nuclear codes sitting outside your office.
Please have plenty of popcorn at the ready.Also, there will be an earlier debate among people deemed to have insufficient gravitas to share a stage with these giants.
