Trump's Palin endorsement shows 3 Stooges in offing

It is happening. The Three Stooges are being revitalized and returning to action. Mr. Donald J. Trump has opened the door and brought in Sarah Palin (Larry) and we will await whom he chooses for Curly.

There are several likely candidates, and with the trio together insults and bigoted statements should be plentiful.

If the voters decide to be governed by such a group, I'm afraid things will get worse than presently happening.

Second thought: How much did Trump pay Palin to get her wild expressions and language alongside him? He has said he is going to spend big money so maybe she is the start but the money could have been better spent.
