Can we all just stop pretending that Donald Trump isn't the modern day version of Joseph fucking Goebbels?
Charlie Pierce:
In a sensible and politically mature society, this should disqualify Trump from being taken seriously on matters of national importance forever—and that's not even to say that he should have been disqualified back in the days when he was slinging the same crapola regarding the president's birth status. Simply put, bookers should inform Trump Central that, until the Libidinous Visitor agrees to stop splattering evil fabulisms across the airwaves, he will be treated the same way we treat 9/11 Truthers and The Most Awesome Man On Television, and we don't give a damn how he's polling in Iowa. Let him go wallow in the landfill that is the Fox News Channel—which, by the way, is the place where Carly Fiorina turned up over the weekend to continue to lie about Planned Parenthood and those phony videos. Trump is no more or less a sewer rat than most of those people anyway. There is no longer any reason to pretend he's credible.

And it does get, in a roundabout way, back to this:
According to a 1990 Vanity Fair interview, Ivana Trump once told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that her husband, real-estate mogul Donald Trump, now a leading Republican presidential candidate, kept a book of Hitler's speeches near his bed.

Oh The Gadfly is done being nice with this fucker. Done.
