With so many politicians, provocateurs and punks to dislike these days, it’s a target-rich environment for a dispirited columnist.I’m torn among the alarming array of possible Republican running mates for Donald Trump, the near-certain GOP presidential candidate; the pro-Palestinian campus protesters who make one nostalgic for the draft; Stormy Daniels, “adult entertainment artist,” a.k.a. porn actor, who testified this week in Trump’s hush-money trial; and Trump himself, who is a human windfall of grotesquerie and arrogant mediocrity.

Fox News host Laura Ingraham didn’t seem to appreciate how CNN reported on Stormy Daniels’ testimony Thursday in Donald Trump’s criminal trial—especially an instance in which she revealed that a past tweet of hers describing an “orange turd” was, in fact, a reference to the indicted former president.A week after taking umbrage at the rival network’s discussion of Michael Cohen calling his former boss “Von ShitzInPants,” and how that crass nickname had come up during the hush-money trial, Ingraham had a similar reaction during her opening monologue.Calling the press “Biden boosters,” Ingraham claimed CNN commentators were “trying to rehabilitate” Daniels…

One photo showed Conway wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat with his wife, former top Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway, and another showed him filming Trump with a crowd of supporters.
