Not Fit to Print

The second debate, or “Town Hall Meeting” was a discussion devoted to Donald Trump.  Hillary couldn’t really change the topic because it would look like she was evading his questions or trying to change the subject.  She did try a couple of times but it didn’t work.

The result was there was no discussion of anything that matters to the American people or the world at large.  There were no questions or comments about international affairs, climate change, gun control, infrastructure, or anything other than Donald Trump and his relationship with women who had gotten to know him.  

It was as if Trump was a little boy, perhaps from English history, with incredible power.  He was leering, menacing scowling and stalking.  He even said that Hillary would be investigated if he won the presidency and she would probably be put in jail.  


Now the New York Times has gotten involved in this event, largely due to the income tax information they published.  Trump has promised to sue the nation’s greatest newspaper over this information.  Too bad, because while he will have little chance of carrying through with this, the New York Times has become famous for disclosing “All the news that’s fit to print”.  Now Donald Trump is leading them into a rabbit hole they would normally not find very fitting.
