I never did like the old time circus's of my youth, though some elements were definitely amazing, like the trapeze artists. Cirque du Soleil is, I think, more fascinating and artful, and interestingly astounding.
So here comes Garrison Keillor with a welcome and rather fitting contemporary analogy. Do check out the link for GK's Denver Post article. He nails it in the final paragraph:
"Maybe he could open an envelope at the podium and announce the total repeal of Obamacare... and then a guy in a tux rushes in - wrong envelope! - and the real winner is.... Front page news on Wednesday..."

YES! Wrong envelope! We should be so lucky, eh?
BTW, even with better lighting, Trumpology is an insult to even the most despicable or demented of anyone's old uncles, especially mine.
