It has come to this:
A Trump ALLY says of His Orangeness: "He's an asshole, but he's our asshole."
Just what you'd expect--in a Saturday Night Live sketch. But this was said in what passes for real life in the US of A in the dog days of 2017. Satire is in huge trouble.
Now here are two even more incredible things. First, there is no discernible sign that Congressman Duncan Hunter, (R) San Diego area, believed he was dissing Trump with this description. And second, his crowd was fine with it. They ate it up!
I find myself longing for the days when conservatives used to be described as 'having a stick up their butt.' Because when you take it out, they collapse into slime.
