Have a great weekend celebration, if you do that kind of thing that is.

He watched a war movie once where the fellow on guard duty asks that of someone approaching his position. And you libruls didn't think Donald Trump had any military bona fides! Sad.

Reality TV and news infortainment are cut from the same cloth. Both thrive on a conflict driven model and are most successful when they promote offensive incidents and obnoxiousl behavior. Thus, the opposing sides arguing format of news infotainment.

It seems that he has been successful in tapping into the ugliness that leads people to enjoy both. Sort of clever, but also disgustingly cynical and I believem clear evidence of the destructiveness of the media as it stands today.
