"Would you prefer seeing Bill and Hillary Clinton decompose in front of your eyes for eight years, or watch the Trump family develop their dynasty?"
A week ago you compared ugly Donald Trump with ugly Hillary Clinton and declared them a visual tie.That matters because our visual “brain” generally wins against whatever part of the brain is pretending to be logical that day. But once we got a look at the entire Trump family, acting as a group, our visual brains started seeing them as a package deal. And when you compare the entire Trump family’s visual appeal to the entire Clinton family’s visual imagery it’s a massacre. Would you prefer seeing Bill and Hillary Clinton decompose in front of your eyes for eight years, or watch the Trump family develop their dynasty? Entertainment-wise, that’s no contest. And people usually vote for entertainment over policy. They just don’t realize it. That’s the biggest news from the convention, and you won’t see it in any headline. - - Scott Adams

I haven't thought his take on the election was worth much, but this, IMO, hits the mark.

The meaningful entertainment will be in the extent of the demeaning behavior we will be forced into accepting by new regulations and moronic mob coercion.
I plan to self-identify as a diarrhetic bull so as to bullshit innocently and be above the law.
