An absurd week in America's two-tier election - Macleans.ca:
This may have been the most absurd week in U.S. politics in recent history.
Here is a list of gaffes, mistakes, or scandals that came out of the Trump campaign, just in the last seven days, just off the top of my head:...
...But it doesn’t
really matter why it is happening. What matters is that it is happening
at all. Everyone needs to step back from the daily coverage and cast
their eyes over the massive smoking wreckage of this election. As soon
as you do, it becomes painfully obvious that Trump is the most
unsuitable candidate for president in living memory. My God, he isn’t
even qualified to be president of the Hair Club for Men.
The absurdity of the last seven days has made it impossible to deny
there aren’t two tiers of scrutiny in this election. Maybe, as a result,
we’ll see a turn toward sanity. Maybe, the media will begin to judge
Trump as a candidate for the office he covets, and not as the reality-TV
star he is.
