I’ve often pondered: Do lunatics know they’re “crazy”? Do they really understand the concept of “sanity/insanity”? These questions arose as I watched a Saturday Night Live skit masquerading as the new guy’s first press conference.
Gene’s observation and analysis:
1. I saw a doddering old man; being spoon-fed softball, correction, TEE-BALL questions from pre-selected “journalists”; who asked them in an apologetic tone, almost as if they were parents consoling a child..
2. I saw “President Harris’ VP” barely able to read his cliff-note answers (which were mostly unchallenged prevarications), a man obviously unable to keep an unscripted train of thought going for more than a few seconds. Yet I’ve seen reactions from “the other side” that are the exact opposite of mine. Is it possible that I’ve gone totally insane? Asking for myself.
