de Pfeffel managed to speak for two-and-a-half minutes there without saying anything. He thinks he’s amusing and witty to an educated and erudite elite audience and simultaneously a populist champion of the common man against said elites, but anyone with the ability to think critically can see through all his BS.
I highly recommend “Distraction” to anyone who hasn’t read it, by the way. I gave it a re-read a few years ago and it still held up, despite the absence of funny haircuts on some of his grifter candidates.
