A friend bailed on the speech, making the very plausible case that Palin
is simply another political celebrity freakshow, like Donald Trump. I
can see the point there but, with Palin, and watching the hysterical
reception her puerile screed received, there is something more serious
going on. She is the living representation of the infantilization of
American politics, a poisonous Grimm Sister telling toxic fairy tales to
audiences drunk on fear, and hate and nonsense. She respects no
standards but her own. She is in perpetual tantrum, railing against her
betters, which is practically everyone, and volunteering for the job of
avatar to the country's reckless vandal of a political Id. It was the
address of a malignant child delivered to an audience of malignant
children. If you applauded, you're an idiot and I feel sorry for you.
