In kindergarten, little girls played the 'I am prettier' game, which hurt their feelings. Often, the 'I am prettier' game carried on to grammar school. But by high school, the prettier game wasn't spoken out loud but sometimes reduced to dirty looks.
College? It never happened. By college, little girls were all grown up and busy finishing term papers, completing degrees, and getting ready to enter the workforce, earning their own paychecks and no longer dependent on an allowance from Daddy.
So, to hear 78-year-old U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump announce at presidential rallies, on stage, in front of a working microphone, and an audience, with cameras rolling, that "I AM PRETTIER THAN KAMALA HARRIS…" was time for a hearing check-up.
Hold it. What did Donald Trump just say?
"I AM PRETTIER THAN KAMALA HARRIS…"
Good God! Donald Trump playing the prettier game is a calamity for the staid, old Republican Party. Who do they have left? Peekaboo Blue Eyes, who failed to say yes or no because he's focused on the future?
Even Putin and Kim Jong Un and every other dictator in the world are going to drop Trump like a hot potato. They may be dictators, oppressing their citizens, but they aren't totally bonkers. There is no way they'll continue holding Donald Trump's hand or send him love letters.
The MAGA people? Not so sure.

But maybe it's still 2024 and not 1924.
