IT IS UNDIGNIFIED TO MOCK THE ITINERANT CIRCUS IN THIS FASHION.

Apparently, somebody with a suitable advertising budget has unleashed the bill-posters at Times Square.

The video ad mocks leaders in the Democratic Party by putting their heads on the bodies of clowns at a circus.

The "DC Clowns" circus show features "Crazy Joe Biden," "Bernie Socialist Sanders," "Nervous Nancy Pelosi," "Shifty Adam Schiff," "Wacky Elizabeth Warren," "Lil Jerry Nadler," and "Clueless Chuck Schumer."

I wonder if any of those scolds could keep ten plates spinning, or juggle six clubs.

Perhaps that's my recent career as a model circus impresario, with opportunities to interact with circus professionals, revealing itself.  Or perhaps that comes from my understanding of the educational role of the itinerant circus.  Clowns and elephant trainers work hard at their craft; contemporary area studies types mail it in.

The Karlson Brothers Circus will be showing again in 2020, starting five weeks from today, in Delavan.

Find yourself a circus and go to it.

The political follies will still be there when you get back.
