If you haven't eaten anything in the last four hours or had anything to drink but small sips of water or a bucket of bourbon, your system is probably safe to watch this 10-minute interview of Donald Trump by Sarah Palin.
Job creation, tax reform, rebuilding the middle class, you name it — the nation's worries are expertly encountered and swiftly attended to here, in this meeting of mindful giants, without any fuss as to … how. Simply declaring a problem in need of a fix suffices. We need to create jobs. Done. We need to reform the tax code. Done. And so on.
It's a damn good thing, is it not, that the Palinites and Trumpeteers refuse to settle for the old political bullshit of vague promises and even vaguer explanations of just how great things will get done.
If she meant it in the artistic sense Palin is right about one thing, DT's run is "avant-garde," and that includes this interview. More specifically it's Dada; a nihilistic movement based on irrationality and negation of accepted norms.

Your caveats required me to wait for the right time to watch this. I'm quite impressed with Sarah Palin's performance and Trump's. It isn't easy to talk that long without saying anything.

A friend of mine said of this interview "Palin interviews Trump, bores everybody." I told him that any variation of "Palin bores everybody" sounded like a porn flick.
