Weirdos and the blue meanies....

I’ll admit it. It’s been weird lately. Really weird.

Donald Trump has chosen as his running mate a guy who makes Sarah Palin look like Charles de Gaulle. Other than immediately offending half the electorate with his viral childless cat ladies routine, JD Vance has been a real boon to the ticket, the sort of Pence-ian yes-man that Trump insists upon (and may later threaten to hang). Not sure how much vetting the campaign did on Vance though. They apparently missed that he was married to an un-white woman, for instance. When this was pointed out Vance was quick to explain that “….obviously she's not a white person…but I love Usha, she's such a good mom…”, and the cringe needle went off the chart and has been stuck there ever since. At least the guy hasn’t publicly admitted to shooting his own dog. That’s the bar, apparently.

On the plus side, Hillbilly Elegy and Glenn Close’s prosthetic nose is back in the Netflix top 10.

Weird.
