Here’s a theory for why the internet latched on to Kenneth Bone, a thoroughly average questioner at today’s US presidential debate: the public is so goddamn sick of this perverse political shitshow that it will seize on any normalcy with the force of a thousand suns.
We mean, really: after the past fortnight, the bloke calmly asked about each candidate’s energy policies. Not sexual assault. Not tax avoidance. Not Syria. Energy.
We’re all sick of being screwed.. RT if you’re ready to get #Boned for the next 4 years #kennethbone pic.twitter.com/PDVInmQxvT
