Assholes of America have found their ideal candidate.

He embodies their deepest-rooted fears.  He plays to their crazed phobias and nuttiest conspiracy theories.  He exploits their frantic desperation for simple answers to complex problems.  He’s the grotesque political pathogen of mass ignorance.  Like them, he’s every bit as mean, as crude, as juvenile, as xenophobic, and overtly as sexist and as racist as they are — only worse.

It’s 10:15 on a Saturday night, and I can’t find a parking space.

With poker commentator Dave Tuchman on our fast boat to nowhere, out in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

 

My morning began with a mouthful of ants.

By mid-afternoon, on a fast boat to nowhere out in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, I rescued a dead fish.

Ten hours, one bottle of cheap wine, and a dozen overpriced cocktails later, by 2 am, I was pacing the sidewalk out in front of a downtown art gallery like a vagrant, screaming profanities through a plate-glass window at shitty paintings being sold at mind-numbing prices.
