    My favorite part of this entire article is the author referring to Trump as a “former game show host.”

      I like the one calling him Rapist Who Wanted Vice President Dead Compares Self to Navalny

      People keep calling him a “game show host” and I feel like I’m missing something. Are people calling the apprentice a “game show”? Thatt was reality TV imo, not a game show.

        I thought more game show than reality, like survivor. Apparently the genre is “reality competition”

          But no one calls survivor a “game show”

          Yes I know it’s a game. But that genre of tv is entirely different. And that should be apparent to anyone who has watched tv once in the last 30 years.

            Wikipedia calls it a “reality game show” for non Americans.

            Your comment was unnecessarily rude and arrogant.

          The two genres? Sure. That show? No. In no way does that show resemble a game show to me.

          Reality tv isn’t particularly “real”.

      I love that description of him. I’ve been calling him that since he threw his hat in the ring back in 2015. I forget who I first heard/read it from, but it’s one of the nicer accurate descriptions of Rapey McTinyD.
