republicans, well, they made tromp thir nominee and made him their president without checking whether the celebrity experience would translate. indeed, the past 40 years of republican presidents boiled down to two bushes and two celebrities who spent the bulk of their lives and gained all of their fame and much of their political standing from being celebrities. republicans now turn to another celebrity famous for pretending to be something on tv while saying that they win with patriotism. they don't need celebrity status. actions speak louder, though, and some introspection may be needed. jay cole once splab explained. got defensive and said i was the same without it, then i thought back to a better me, before i was a b-list celebrity. jay cole called himself b-list, but reality shows are c-list, and there was a gop before this kind of celebrity.
