Election Entertainment

 A Unmemorably Senior Moment   Our choices The evening of June 27th marked a nadir of political dark humor.  The two oldest men to ever run for the presidency acted like very old men.  President Biden could not reliably string two sentences together, proving his senility, while former President Donald Trump raged on, saying anything he thought might get votes.  While Trump was more desperate than usual, Biden's mumbling took center stage.  It was mesmerizing, like watching a train wreck in slow motion.  The video (link above) marks a downward inflection point for the Democratic Party and the nation as a whole.  Sadly, there was nothing entertaining about it.

Better Than Perry Mason   Our First Step to Our First Outlaw President One trial down and three to go, once again The Donald sucks all the air our of the News Media and looks to continue his run well into 2025.  He has now made Bill Clinton look like a choir boy, too.  Now, that is entertainment NSFW!

    Ron DeSantis finally ended his Goofy quest with a whimper of a misquote , which seemed to punctuate his campaign. Churchill would be baffled, as were the voters.  Perhaps, Ron was quoting former president George W. Bush, who was also famous for malapropisms.

 Trump Goes James Bond -   Just For Me But Not for Thee - Trump's lawyers argued in Federal Appeals Court that a sitting president would be immune from prosecution if he ordered the assassination of his political enemy.  The judge found this uncompelling.  However, the Supreme Court may think otherwise.  If they do, then Sleepy Joe can end The Donald with prejudice and impunity.  Now, that's entertaining!

 Trump Gets the Last Word Six minutes of hell for Judge Engoron - Closingly Argumentative   He may lose the trial, but The Donald still gave the court a piece of his mind.  His strategy of insulting the prosecution and the judge may someday be a winner, but it bought no favors today.  However, if it works, we may see the American judicial system go the way of Grand Theft Auto.

 Trump Plans to Speak - The Donald is planned to speak at closing arguments of his NY civil case, which might be the most entertaining thing he has done since Celebrity Apprentice.  However, this will not happen. He is famous for posturing, not for defending himself in court.  This is a shame, too, because it might become the biggest TikTok video of the year. Update:  That was quick - Trump can't deliver closing argument in New York civil fraud trial, judge rules https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-closing-argument-new-york-fraud-trial-judge/

 Carportbagger Lauren switches rather than fights Voted Best Congressperson to Spend a Drive-in Movie Night in the Backseat of your Buick , Representative Boebert is moving to stand a better chance of getting elected (not actually re-elected) into the House of Representatives.  Lauren, who just turned 37, may be living proof of why ancient baby boomers are still winning elections.  However, she keeps trying in her own very entertaining way, earning the title, ' Five Feet of Spunk .'  If she can keep it up, she may become POTUS once The Donald and Sleepy Joe die of old age.
