So bizarre... I’m starting to find some of these things credible...

LOL, “Onassis” Jesus Christ.

I love how you get the New York-isms right, Roy. I was visiting relatives in NYC a few weeks ago and someone I was talking to said “whattaya” and it felt like slipping back into a warm bath. I love Philly but there’s no place like home.

Bannon's face is so viscerally repellent it's almost mesmerizing.

I was kinda hoping Bannon would stick a gross hand onto the glass, like in “Arrival.”

With all the talk of a coup it;s reassuring to see the real picture of ego, incompetence and malicious malfeasance.

Just imagining Bannon as the Third Stage Guild Navigator from David Lynch's Dune...

"BANNON: It’s natural. They’re afraid to say all they know because they’re afraid they might upset you. Which is good! They should be afraid! We rule by fear, so even our vassals must be afraid. In fact they should be the most afraid. Otherwise it’s anarchy." Too bad so many people believe that.

There should be enough of these vignettes to make their sale as an e-book feasible next year. I’d buy it.

I'd like to show Trump my ass.

I'm thinking back right now to Dan Aykroyd's SNL skit as Nixon in "The Final Days", where if memory serves Belushi as Kissinger has to talk him down. This is like that if instead of the inspiration being Woodward's book it was a combination of HP Lovecraft (yes, with the racism) and Mario Puzo. I cannot fuckin' wait to get back to something more like Aykroyd's Jimmy Carter on the call-in show, where Joe Biden coaches someone through fixing a postal sorting machine and then counsels a young man through a bad trip.
