The goofy phenomenon that is Donald Trump - - reality TV show front man, brassy walking brand, limitless self-promoter, puffed-up tycoon and now Presidential tease - - is a one-man measure of how far down television and its ubiquity and its profitability have dragged the culture and American politics.
Trump has made the pre-presidential primary debate into something of a rolling Comedy Club act, a reality show itself - - reversing Sarah Palin's time-line - - campaign first, then the reality show - - but accelerating the overall inanity.
You thought that Palin set the bar at the all-time imaginable low - - then along came the Donald.
Down the road - - Kim Kardashian?
