I began my day, my year, crying out in protest against a headline on The Fix:
No! Abnormal is still abnormal… “We need to prepare for abnormal being the new normal, politics-wise” https://t.co/Rvh2KFRTrI

I am as dismayed as Froderick Frahnkensteen at learning that apparently, at some point during this awful past year, I put an abnormal brain into a seven and a half foot long, fifty-four inch wide — but small-handed — gorilla.
But don’t blame me! Eyegor let me down. I had intended our new POTUS to have Hans Delbrück’s brain, you see…

Ahhh, so much for the break. I come back and Brad is picking up right where he left off. I’d put Trump’s brain up against Obama or Hillary’s brain any day. Successful businessman vs. career politicians who have never head a real working job.
… which makes as much sense as a baseball manager saying he’d rather recruit a successful golfer for his team than someone with experience in the top ranks of the MLB.
Which is to say, it doesn’t make sense. Complete non sequitur…
I hear TIm Tebow (Heisman trophy winner) is playing professional baseball now, likely for the Fireflies. He never played baseball past his junior year in high school.
Yeah, he should be a big draw for the Fireflies next season…
If a successful businessman is defined as a person who takes all the money for himself and declares bankruptcy, then I’d say that’s successful. He’s a successful con man. Not to mention his mental and emotional disabilities. At least Hillary has eight years experience being president. *wink*
Strong women don’t scare *me*.
Over on Facebook, the Tweet with which this post started generated some discussion about the serious point — namely, whether we must accept the abnormal as normal….
Brad, I searched for Hans’ real name because I intend to post a picture of his brain and suggest we give it to POTUS for Christmas. Along with a heart someone’s not using. I could also reference The Wizard of Oz.
