There’s only one person who agrees with me on everything, and, as I’m not running for office, that person is not on the ballot.

Via The Charlotte Observer, Lorraine Ali tries to make sense of ~~Donald Trump’s “social” media posts~~ the senseless. A snippet:

All leaders deploy tough talk in times of war, but Trump’s posts read more like the feverish ramblings of mad Col. Kurtz (Marlon Brando) in “Apocalypse Now” – “You’re an errand boy sent by grocery clerks to collect a bill” – than Winston Churchill’s galvanizing call to arms against the Nazis, “We shall fight on the beaches.”

Unlike the fictional Kurtz or the real Churchill, Trump has no military experience. He avoided the Vietnam War draft with four student deferments and one medical deferment for bone spurs. An area where he is experienced? Baiting foes. Antagonizing enemies, genuine or imagined, is a Trump specialty, be it from the Oval Office, on the campaign trail, or in the before times, as a reality TV personality.
