A textbook example of the unthinkable actually happening:
"It's good to be the king," says Mel Brooks (as Louis XVI) in The History of the World, Part I, lifting the skirt of one of his lovely courtieresses in order to dry-hump her. It's make-believe Hollywood pseudo-licentiousness. It's outrageous, beyond the pale, and hilarious as long as it stays in the movie.
"It's good to be star," says Trump, bragging about his license to kiss women and grab them by their "pussies."
What in comedy is amusing is in real life simply grotesque — as is the perpetrator of the atrocity, the maniacal Republican candidate for the most powerful office on earth.
