BILLINGSGATE POST: You can’t make this up; unless you are the only one on the planet to have scored 12 Doctorates and lived long enough to use them all. Long before other scholars made bogus claims of cause and effect, the French playwright, Moliere, coined the phrase “The Poindexter Effect” in his play Le Misanthrope. It referred to a gentleman named Pierre Poindexter, who Moliere described as the product of a royal ménage a trois with a prince, a common trollop and an unsuspecting sheep.
Poindexter, who was never accepted as authentic by any of the three parties involved, blamed his irrelevance on the fact that neither the prince or the sheep, respectively, would claim him as their progeny.
Although it was French playwright, Moliere, who coined the phrase in his play, it was Ed Norton, eight centuries later, who resurrected the phrase, telling the perplexed Ralph Kramden of the Honeymooners, that he thought Ralph suffered from the Poindexter Effect.
And now, in a profanity laced interview, Hunter Biden claims that Trump is f**king irrelevant. In his tirade against Donald Trump, Hunter called him “a despot anchovy suffering from an early onslaught of the Poindexter Effect.”
Dr. Slim: “If this doesn’t burn Trump’s ass, even a blowtorch wouldn’t work.”
Dirty: “Yo, Dr. Dude. That’s why they invented assbestos.”
