5-minute podcast.
There should have been a stage with 17 comedians on it, running parallel to the Republican debates.
Seinfeld, Louis CK, Whoopi,Jamie Foxx, Steve Martin, Chris Rock, Larry David and Tina Fey, Dana Carvey, Chevy Chase, of course.
Comedians not imitating the Repub candidates, but being candidates themselves. It's okay to invent a persona since that's what actors and comedians do.
In the podcast I explain how this is basically what Trump is doing, giving his people really good television. It's amazing it took so long for us to get here. Just flip Reality TV over, and take it out of the realm of fantasy. On this island, the last survivor gets to live in the White House and fly around on Air Force One. Politics has changed forever, probably not just here in the US.
Colbert was prophetic. Trump is doing the same thing, but he got off the for-play stage and jumped onto the for-real stage. Basically no difference. Remember when McCain said Obama was a celebrity? He was figuring it out. Only we don't want the one whose role is sub-titled The American Fuhrer. :-)
