“Listen you promise me something. Ok? Just if you’re ever in trouble, don’t be brave. You just run, Ok? Just run away.” - Jenny Curran to Forrest Gump, from the 1994 film, Forrest Gump.
Business and real estate mogul Donald J. Trump has decided the best defense is a good cowardly offense, running away from Megyn Kelly, as fast as his Vietnam War avoiding, bone spur feet, will carry him. Unlike Forrest Gump, who shed his braces, Mr. Trump has made every attempt to not be taken seriously and find his way out of the Republican primary but his sycophants won’t let him gracefully depart with his head held low. He’s verbally assaulted every ethnic and minority group possible, attacked the competence and appearance of women, encouraged and tacitly condoned violence toward any dissenters and made a mockery of every reasonable proposal to, “Make America Great Again.”
His campaign slogan even denigrates the great country we are privileged to live in. He’s reduced, Saint Ronnie’s shining city on a hill, to a series of gaudy gold plated mansions. So, unavoidably faced with a Fox News debate rematch with Megyn Kelly, he’s decided she’s not professional enough, serious enough or whatever confrontation avoiding, meandering language he can find enough, to avoid a forum that is not controlled by him. “When you hit me, I hit back harder,” which he is fond of saying, I guess only applies on his terms. If this were a real fight, he’d tell his trainer and cut man, he wanted to go home, after he took his first punch. I am sure the leaders, both good and bad, of the world are licking their collective chops at a chance to push a thin-skinned, ego maniac into a corner, of his own design; and along with it, the good faith and credit of the people of the United States.
