Transcript:
The Donald Trump Mysteries Maid: Shriek!!! Theres been a murder most foul! I found a dead body in the study! Trump: I'll handle this! Everyone, to the Study! Trump: Hmmm....I have examined the scene and have already cracked the case! Man: Good Lord! Trump: YOU are guilty!! Revealing this body violates this Confidentiality Agreement you signed when you started your employment at this mansion! Trump: Therefore, you leaked news of this murder! That is the real story here! Man: Now see here, clearly the story is that there is a murderer on the loose!! Trump: That is fake news! Woman: But there's a body right here!! Trump: FAKE NEWS!! Man: Let me get this straight chap. Are you saying that the news of the murder is fake because it was illegally "leaked"? Trump: Of course. Man: If she was lying about the murder, there would have been no breach of confidentiality and no "leak". In that case, would this dead body be real? Trump: The leak is real, and the news is fake! Woman: Um, Inspector, did a bloody knife just fall from your pocket? Trump: BIASED QUESTION! SO UNFAIR! ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!

This makes complete sense to me. About as much sense as anything else in the last month or so.

This is what William F. Buckley, the late, great conservative pundit had to say about The Orange Menace…..
“Look for the narcissist. The most obvious target in today’s lineup is, of course, Donald Trump. When he looks at a glass, he is mesmerized by its reflection. If Donald Trump were shaped a little differently, he would compete for Miss America. But whatever the depths of self-enchantment, the demagogue has to say something. So what does Trump say? That he is a successful businessman and that that is what America needs in the Oval Office. "

Congratulations, Mr. Bolling! Herblock’s a prestigious name—you should do an Atomic Bum cartoon in his honor, in fact.
(And if I may, I’ll just quote the words you wrote when a friend had you autograph a collection for me: “Damn bug-lover!” I wear the label with pride.)
