“It used to be that television imitated life, but in the past few years, it seems more like life is trying to imitate television. I had a flash of inspiration tonight that this election is being run like a reality show and Donald Trump is the Honey Boo Boo of candidates.”

The words above occurred to me in a flash as I was swimming (past midnight) in the pool tonight, but I think they mesh well with the below commentary by Trae Crowder that awaited me on Facebook when I got in from the pool around 2 a.m.; and it is what caused me to post both my own thoughts and this commentary. It contains a bit of rough language, but it is for a purpose and the points he makes are ones I think we’ve all been ripping our hair out trying to get Trump supporters to realize. I hope you hear it through to the end.
