Sure, there's other news in the world. But how could anyone pass this up? ABC's Michael Falcone reports that the You're Fired / I Quit presidential dream team
is to finally meet face to face.
Sarah Palin plans to meet tonight with Donald Trump in New York City, according to sources close to Trump.
Her office reached out to meet with Trump. The two plan to meet in his 30,000-square-foot apartment in Trump Tower and later plan to eat dinner together.
There are multiple questions raised by this, not the least of which are "how the hell do you furnish a 30,000 square foot apartment?", "how much would I have to pay to get hold of a tape of Sarah Palin and Donald Trump trying to have a serious discussion on, say, the nuances of American fiscal policy?", or "if you put Sarah Palin and Donald Trump in the same room with a single television crew, who would kill who in the resulting frantic dash towards the camera?"
But lest any Republicans misunderstand, these two reality-TV magnates with a penchant for seeing their own names painted on things in really big letters are, in fact, the maybe-candidate and no-longer-candidate that the Democrats are most afraid of facing in 2012. Please, keep them away from each other. It would be horrible if they decided to run together.
