Sometimes I Wonder What Ken Burns is Thinking....

in about a decade or so he's going to have to produce a documentary Series on TRUMP for the PBS The Presidents Series. Maybe he'll take a comedic approach because its hard to deal with the man seriously. I'm sure it will be Pretty-Pretty-Pretty good though

had this spot telling us that American's have always appreciated humor form their politicians. Then showing appropriate pics or footage as he went on to say, from the wry wit of Abraham Lincoln, to the self effacing humor of Ronald Reagan and the hilarious slapstick of George Bush! Then showing several of the dorky Bush moves we all probably remember. I only saw it once. I tried finding it online but never did.

I want this era to end ASAP, and I don't ever want to relive it.

It's worse than I thought it was going to be, and I thought it was going to be awful.
