How does one survive rejection? Ronald Rump, once the Grand High Imperial Twitterbug (GHIT) and recipient of endless adoration, is now living on the fringes of fame after being demoted by voters into a Totally Witless Insensitive Turkey (TWIT). Democracy has failed him. The Publicans, the party that rolled over and begged him to ‘be …

There’s nothing quite like being ill on television. Since the dawn of black and white broadcasting, has there ever been a season that didn’t have a doctor series? Remember Marcus Wellby MD or Dr. Kildare? I hope not – you’d have to be at least as old as me, so let’s not start there. Doogie …
