"Almost as bad as going from running the Bimbo Eruption Unit to hosting Good Morning America."
Thom, I know reading comprehension is hard for you, so I'll explain it in simpler language you can understand. In the case of the Bimbo whatever thing, the person went on to become a host of a TV show. Not particularly important, right? You can choose to turn the channel if you don't like it
In the other case, you have an individual with zero qualifications who is now representing the most powerful nation on the planet in front of the rest of the world on every single issue of planetary importance.
Do you see the difference or are you still having a hard time with it? Don't worry. I'll wait...
I know Turtle, I just have this OCD like tendeny to want to rebutt stupidity with intelligence, if not for a discussion with him, at least so nobody buys into his bullshit without at least being exposed to some counter arguments.
In other words, I'm bored and feel like picking an internet fight.
It may not seem that important to you, but, the rest of the world is in a crappy situation where everything the US does or doesn't do has the potential to crush or elevate our economies. So yeah, if the Ambassador to the UN decides to say something stupid, shooting from the hip, a-la Trump / Fox News style, that can have huge impacts on markets around the world and on the discussion around foreign affairs. So yeah, it's pretty important for the most powerful nation in the world to have a representative before the international community who can actually communicate with an advanced degree of coherence and intelligence.
