Dana Milbank points out what we knew: Donald Trump is a joke that is hard to laugh at. He ran on the ridiculous Fox News talking point that the world laughed at Barack Obama's leadership. The world literally laughed at the Blowhard in Chief as he addressed the UN yesterday. Trump has insulated himself inside a cocoon of purest bullshit. He has a coterie of sycophants telling him what he hears, Fox pumps up his vanity and he avoids anyone but his Deplorables at the Volken Rallies around the country.
The rest of the world has to look at us with fear and wonder. Somehow, we have twice elected incurious men without a majority or even plurality of the popular vote. One launched an illegal war that has still roiled the Middle East, the other is an international punchline.
One consistent truth about the GOP has been their imperviousness to negative feedback. Let's give them some in early November.
