Donald Trump is Tony Clifton (by yours truly)

If you are like me, you love Andy Kaufman and think he was a genius.
If you’re not familiar with Andy, let me explain something about him
before I write out the point that I’m trying to make.
In the late 1970s, Andy developed a character/alter ego named Tony
Clifton. Tony was a boorish chauvinist and borderline racist who was also
quite possibly the worst “lounge” singer in history.
Andy used Tony (among everything else in his arsenal) to screw with
people. Promoters & TV talk shows would try to book Clifton “knowing”
that it was Andy, but Andy would swerve them by sending his writing
partner Bob Zmuda or his brother Michael to appear as Clifton instead.
It was all a big practical joke done simply because Andy himself thought
it was funny.
I tell you that to tell you this.
Donald Trump as a Presidential candidate is 100% Tony Clifton.
Sure, Trump really is a chauvinist and quasi-racist who isn’t fit to be a
dog catcher, let alone a U.S. President.
But Donald Trump knows exactly how to get attention, and in the last 18
months, he has turned up the obnoxious elements of himself well past
eleven.
All so that he could hijack a major political party and earn their
nomination for President.
His speeches are dumbed-down worse than reality television, not because
he can’t communicate at a higher level, but because he doesn’t need to
and hasn’t needed to. He literally could just drop a needle on a record
like Andy did with the “Mighty Mouse” theme and mime along to the same
dozen catchphrases that he’s milked like a cantankerous cow for so many
weeks.
There is no substance, there is no real platform, there is no idea or
direction. There isn’t even a campaign structure per se, because that
element is wholly dominated by a host of shell companies with one common
owner – Donald Trump.
This is a massive practical joke, and the only people who stand to win
anything from it are Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump himself. She gets
her Presidency, and Trump gets the satisfaction of pulling off his
greatest swindle ever.
That’s the art of the steal, my friends, and that is why a vote for
Donald Trump is a vote for a practical joke that is only funny to the guy
running it.

The fact that there are millions of toothless, bitter rednecks who are NOT onto the joke means it's NOT a joke to those of us faced with the possibility of a Drumpf presidency.
And even if he does resign the presidency soon after as many say he will, (he just wanted to run and win, not actually run the freaking country) that's still not funny because we'd have F*****G President Mike Pence.
And that would be sardonically funny -- the hyper-conservative Pence, who could never NEVER have even ranked in the top 10 of this year's 17-person clown car race could sneak into the Top spot via the back door, which is, obviously, what Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell are secretly banking on.
But only sardonically funny. It would otherwise be an absolute horror story for the rest of us.

You and your "writing career" and your "creative genius" and your
"education" are as big of frauds as Donald Trump, little boy.
Now go play in traffic. I suggest a busy interstate.

It won't happen. That's part of the swindle.

Stop being so pigheaded and take the tip, Chadlee.
Maybe, just maybe, you won't make it quite so easy for Usenet to
humiliate on such a regular basis. Think of all those letters you
wouldn't have to write to other posters' wives/bosses/police/Santa
Claus if you could stop them from being so mean to you on t'internets!
