I remember when Dan Quayle was roasted endlessly over the singular gaff of "potatoe." Oh, how I wistfully pine for the days when a Republican candidate's most risible intellectual deficiency was their spelling talents.
Then came "W" and his numerous rhetorical foibles. "Fool me once, shame on... shame on you. Fool me ... can't get fooled again!" or "Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.” This was still funny, largely because Bush had a sense of humor and could laugh along with us.
Trump's intellectual deficiencies simply don't make me laugh anymore. They just make me depressed for the state of our nation. 46% of voters voted for this guy. THIS GUY!
