I THINK WE CAN FILE THIS ONE UNDER: DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR…


What is it about all of these Hollyweird types that, just because they’re able to read lines that others have written for them, has them thinking that the common folk see them as being worthy of public office?  And since we know that being elected to public office requires one to be no great intellect, it’s only in that regard that most would make the perfect candidate.  After all, a goodly share of our current ‘public officials’ make very clear on nearly a daily basis that the office to which they have been elected is well beyond their meager mental capabilities. 

All of which brings me to ‘Mr. Anger Management’ himself, Alec Baldwin, who in displaying what I think is more than a bit of over-confidence, has now claimed to be “one thousand percent” confident that he could beat President Trump in an election.  It was just this past Monday that Baldwin told Howard Stern, “If I ran, I would win. I would absolutely win. One thousand percent.”  Baldwin insists that only his wife and his current job hosting ABC’s “Match Game” stand in his way.  But I dare say that few Americans would vote for someone so mentally unstable.

The issue of Baldwin’s political prowess came up on Stern’s radio show when the two were discussing hypothetical match-ups in the 2020 presidential election.  Stern then suggested that perhaps Baldwin could be one of the Democrat contenders to take on the sitting president.  Baldwin repeated his assertion that he couldn’t lose.  He said, “If I ran for president, I would win. Hands down, I would win.”  He went on to say, “It would be the funniest, most exciting, craziest campaign.”  There are few people who take Baldwin as seriously as he seems to take himself.

Baldwin, who regularly plays Trump on “Saturday Night Live,” suggested that if he faced off with Trump, the late night comedy show might even actually host a presidential debate or two.  Despite all the bravado going on, Baldwin, suggested it was very important to consider who the Democrats might choose to counter the president in 2020, predicting, “Somebody great is going to come up, I hope.”  Personally, looking at the potential candidates the Democrats will have to choose from, finding someone “great” will be pretty tough.  

But look, all joking aside, Baldwin is doing nothing more than that which he, and so many of his Hollyweird friends do best: pretending to be he is actually someone of substance, which he most definitely is not.  And like most of those in his chosen profession, he is little more than a caricature of real human being.  And besides, actors don't actually have real friends; nor do they know what real friendship is unless it is been thoroughly scripted for them.  They only have acquaintances acting like friends, according to their script. 

Baldwin is another perfect example of what happens when you spend your entire adult life in the world of make-believe.  Add delusions of grandeur and a healthy dose of arrogance, and you end up with severe mental disorders. Maybe he can ask Douche bag DeNiro to be his running mate.  Maybe Baldwin could make a movie and name it, "The Transformation of America." It might sell if he was to make it a comedy.  It just goes to show what a poor grasp on reality liberals truly have. I'm sure he actually believes this, along with countless other idiotic notions.
