It’s one thing to be shamed (or rather indicted) and banished from the national political scene, it’s entirely another thing to try to pull yourself out of the gutter by throwing rocks at the President of the United States. I was half expecting to hear this kind of dribble; but not before he started appearing on Donald Trump’s The Apprentice. I’ll give him 9/10 points for stupidity!
