"You'll Get Another Show, But It Won't Be the Same."


It may not be as big, or at the best hour.

Did anyone else immediately think of Brian Williams during this speech?

reply

Well, no. Brian Williams was never that big - nor was he that type of personality. Made me think more about Morton Downey JR, although he wasn't that big either.

reply

I thought more of Glenn Beck.

I really thought this was a brilliant coda to the story, rather than indicating that he was completely finished. Not with a bang but a whimper.

reply

Yeah, Glen Beck sounds right ... but so does Trump ... the problem is that Trump doesn't even try to hide it ... I guess Americans are used to being called stupid so they they work hard to live up to it.

reply

Well, I’m an American and I would point out that Trump is more intensely disliked here than any political figure in modern history, along with having a minority of the population that really loves him.

reply

I'm American too ... So excepting you and me and many others, but we still have a higher proportion of stupid people than the rest of the developed world.
