So.......2 days after Baby Orange puts on a reality TV conference where he pretends he's a real President and relatively normal human being.........yesterday, unable to control his dementia-addled mind, he unleashes the real Baby Orange.......and once again, the Inner Id comes roaring out, in all its foul glory.....
Even funnier.......this morning Baby Orange tweets that he never referred to Haiti and the continent of Africa as shitholes, even though an entire roomful of people heard him.......
This is more "Alice In Wonderland" than both of Tim Burton's movies put together....
One crystal clear fact comes out of all this: There does indeed exist an unspeakably ghastly, festering, rotten shithole in the world today.
The mind of Baby Orange.
We'd rather not waste any more words on this monstrous creature.....so moving on.....
The Pop-Culture-ing of Tonya Harding......Truth in the eye of the beholder.....
In a 2 hour ABC news special, America's Un-Sweetheart revealed she overheard her abusive, scumbag husband and his coterie of fellow idiots plotting an assault on one of her rivals......weeks before their infamous kneecapping of Nancy Kerrigan......
Tonya promptly put it out of her thoughts.......until it happened.
Bullshit.
While we do maintain a limited level of sympathy for Harding.....(nobody deserved to end up with both a mother and a husband who crawled up from the depths of hell) , no amount of accolades handed out to "I, Tonya", no amount of strutting appearances at awards shows will change our basic opinion.......
She was in on it. From the get go
We're all for redemption.......but sorry, the current pop culture re-write of Harding as a totally put-upon victim has a weird smell about it. And it doesn't smell like truth.
Having said that, we don't begrudge Harding getting a fresh new 15 minutes of fame and enjoying a peaceful, happy life with a loving family by her side. (No vindictive judge could have come up with a better punishment for her than her own woeful career move into boxing.........which she managed to survive without a face re-arrangement like Mickey Roarke's.....)
In a way, she's a living example of the maxim given to novelists and screenwriters......every villain considers themselves the hero of their own story.....
