Garrison Keillor: Life after the election Garrison Keillor

[liberal N proud]

He will never be my president because he doesn't read books, can't write more than a sentence or two at a time, has no strong loyalties beyond himself, is more insular than any New Yorker I ever knew, and because I don't see anything admirable or honorable about him. This sets him apart from other politicians. The disaffected white blue-collar workers elected a Fifth Avenue tycoon to rescue them from the elitists -- fine, I get that -- but they could've chosen a better tycoon. One who served in the military or attends church or reads history, loves opera, sails a boat -- something -- anything -- raises llamas, plays the oboe, runs a 5K race now and then, has close friends from childhood. I look at him and there's nothing there.

1. Wrong, Garrison. There is plenty there.

Tons of Donald. All Donald all the time. A Donald marathon. A Donald tycoon typhoon. He doesn't need to do anything, be anything, stand for anything, etc because he is so Donald.
