Now, the one thing I know about gramps is you don't pull his finger, okay? Cause if you do he's going to emit some godawful utterance. so stop pulling gramps finger!
He may not be Elvis, but he is Colonel Parker in Elvis drag. Much like Elvis he plays the sticks, because he knows he can't sell it to the urban market. Shit, I swear Trump's rally tours follow the same route Colonel Tom had Elvis work. The carnivals, the rodeo circuit. This is the Republican Reunion Tour, with Trump filling in for the former lead singer Ronald Reagan. Saggy old premises replayed for the rural cult,
rehashed and painfully familiar. "Let's run through that old classic 'Free Market'" and a thousand meth lighters light up the night with Trump riffing nonsense when he doesn't know the words.
Only the racism is turned up to 11. And they win not in spite of that racism but because of it.
The first lesson here: stupid always wins.
Second: stop pulling gramp's finger!
