Hard to make metaphors for infinite lunacy
Stupidly watched a few minutes of replays from the latest "debate". This is crazy beyond crazy beyond crazy.
As always in a "debate", the participants are not arguing two sides, they're bidding up the strength of one side. "Debates" are auctions. In this auction, each bidder takes a turn at bidding up the need to impeach Trump. Why do they want to impeach Trump? Because he was pretending to "investigate" an ordinary bit of corruption. Who caused this unremarkable bit of standard DC corruption? Biden.
Hmm. I guess this Biden fellow must be out of politics, safely insulated from the discussion of his corruption.
No! Wait! Biden is right there on stage along with the bidders! He's joining in the bidding!
Best analogy for this craziness: A jury trial with the defendant serving in the jury. The defendant turns the trial around to convict the cops for arresting him.
