Hi folks,

Re:  Former President Donald Trump is staying away from the September 18 Washington, DC, rally . . .  because he thinks it's a setup to damage his reputation

Does anyone think his reputation can be damaged any further?  Well, maybe if we get to see his tax returns.

My choice of Charlie Manson over Hillary Clinton was partially based on the idea that BOTH sides of the aisle would do everything in their power to keep a leash on the sonofabitch.  I figured that The Donald was a suitable stand in for Charlie.

What I lost track of was that Charlie Manson and Trump actually have followings that buy into their drivel.  Some of Trump's antics were mildly amusing, and it was/is entertaining to see how those opposed to him wax rabid in their hatred of him.

Having said that, I can't wait for the moment when he is out of the limelight for good.  He has a knack for making everything he says sound like utter bullshit - even when he's spot on (a stopped watch is right twice a day).

For him to worry about his reputation is akin to Bill the Cat's (of Bloom County) trying to maintain the image of a total degenerate in the face of allegations that he is actually a decent guy.  Ironically enough, Bloom County absolutely nailed Donald Trump's persona over 30 years ago.

I have to be careful, however, since every time I have thought "they couldn't do worse than this asshole..." I've been wrong.

I used to have a lot of respect for George Will, even if I didn't agree with his point of view.  But then I heard him say that it was such an overreaction for the fences to go back up around the Capitol bldg ahead of this rally.  Wonder what he would have been saying had a similarly violent event happened and CP had done no structural preparation. 9_9
