Idiots in Search of Excitement 

Michael Moore is saying exactly what I am: bored idiots in search of entertainment will do all they can to push Trump into the White House:

Coming back to the hotel after appearing on Bill Maher’s Republican Convention special this week on HBO, a man stopped me. “Mike,” he said, “we have to vote for Trump. We HAVE to shake things up.” That was it. That was enough for him. To “shake things up.” President Trump would indeed do just that, and a good chunk of the electorate would like to sit in the bleachers and watch that reality show.

This is why I feel like barfing whenever I hear people bleat about their lack of excitement. Politics is not a reality TV show. It isn’t supposed to make you feel. It’s supposed to make you think. If you want to get excited, go to an amusement park, visit a casino, Google some porn. But stop expecting the political process to titillate you.
