As Prairie of The Dog Goes, So Goes America

FOTP News in Review for . . . Sunday, September 29th, 2024

The guy on the far right — and what other right is there in America? — is Congressman Tom Emmer (R-Minnesota), who, when he ran for House speaker, was humiliated by the guy on the far left — and what would that be like?— Donald Trump, who was called “America’s Hitler,” by the guy in center, J.D. Vance, who hasn’t been in the center since Billionaire Peter Thiel plied him with everything but blow and hookers to join the Dark Side.

It’s a brain trust that needs a heart.

And how about the condom/doily, huh, over the healed ear? Why does Trump have so much trouble behaving like a normal human being?

Anyway, the three have now reunited and it feels so good.

Which brings us to Emmer’s sketch on ABC’s This Week. Emmer is helping Vance, our next vice president — that’s if God has truly forsaken us and not just teasing about it — to prepare for Tuesday’s debate with the sane and humane Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minnesota). Someone at the network inexplicably thought it would be a good idea to find out how the Emmer/Vance rehearsals were going.

Before we get to that, though, here’s what happened Saturday night when Trump was in Prairie du Chien (Prairie of the Dog), Wisconsin.

(Incidentally, upon arriving in Wisconsin, the ex-president said, “This place used to be called Prairie of the Dogs, you had many of them, and cats, too, before the Haitians arrived and ate them all up. Everyone was saying it was the worst thing ever to happen in Michigan, which is close to Canada.”)
