Who’s running this show,
anyway? Is it really the hoodwinking reality TV star or the loudmouth
(Formerly?) drug-addled radio star, Rush Limbaugh? It’s Limbaugh, even
though “no one” listens to radio anymore.
It’s Limbaugh because as a stage four lung cancer patient with
self-induced deafness, he has nothing to lose.
In fact, Rush is a
pretty talented radio guy. Unfortunately for the rest of the country he’s
abused that talent by finding a niche that appealed to a small knot of wackos
and managed to expand that knot into millions of listeners longing for simple
answers to complicated questions and willing to believe anything that coincides
with their supposedly conservative longings, lustings and delusions.
trump wanted to do his
own radio show. Kind of a radio version of his failed TV show. But
he didn’t want to “compete with … Limbaugh.” trump turns to Rush for
instruction. And Rush knows just how to
kiss trump’s ass to keep the relationship safe and the instruction going.
Professor Limbaugh isn’t above coddling his favorite students.
Oh, every once in a
while, the president cheats on Rush. You know, like when he watches Fox
or that even lower lowlife One America News. But as he did and probably
still does with women, trump returns to his true love, Limbaugh, at least until
the divorce or the next other woman.
Well, no. His true love
is himself. But Rush must be #2. Like Avis, he’ll have to try harder.
NOTES FROM All OVER:
(SAN FRANCISCO) -- Talk
show bananahead Michael Savage has turned his savagery against some of his
fellow right wingnuts. He calls them scientific illiterates since he has a
Ph.D. in ethnomedicine from that bastion of conservatism, the University of California,
Berkeley and knows something about diseases.
But he still supports trump.
(HARRISBURG) -- The
governor of PA has decreed all people who work or shop in open businesses wear
masks. Try and find any! Maybe a Halloween mask you forgot to throw out?
(TALLAHASSEE) -- The
governor has declared WWE wrestling an essential business and therefore may
continue to stage live matches in Florida. Do they have a version of the Marvel
comic “Masked Raider?”
(SACRAMENTO) --
McClatchy, the second largest local news organization in the country and now in
bankruptcy has opened itself for a sale. This raises concerns about
someone taking this awkward and ill-prepared giant. It also concerns its current owners that no
one will want to buy the place. Would you?
