Did you see the debate last night? I'm visiting my sister and we watched it together. I cannot tell you the number of times our jaws hit the floor watching that presidential debate. It was like watching the inner Lonesome Rhodes of Donald Trump come bursting out like the creature when John Hurt's character is having dinner with the space crew in ALIEN. Yes, I make many classic film references in my posts but I could not help thinking of Lonesome Rhodes -- the manipulative, shady network TV host-turned-political force in A FACE IN THE CROWD.
Oh! And during a presidential debate, Trump not only got in a plug for a new hotel of his, he mentioned Rosie O'Donnell when the topic of sexist comments he's made about women came up. Rosie O'Donnell was a talking point in a presidential debate. And there was the business of his claims, for years, that President Obama is not an American.
He was clearly unprepared for that debate. And he looked pretty raggedy by the end of the debate for someone who claims to have more stamina than Hillary Clinton does. At the end, she looked pulled together. She looked like a leader.
I am not saying that Hillary Clinton is perfect. But as for Donald Trump...I wouldn't trust that man with my zip code let alone the nuclear codes.
Watch the news, pay attention, read and "stay woke."
