I guess I was disappointed that it was thought necessary to "investigate" and rebut Trump's

"windmill noise causes cancer" nonsense.

If tomorrow he claims that red M&M's cause syphilis, will we start injecting elementary school students with ampicillin, "just in case"?

If he says that most women think tacky comb-overs are sexy, should we do a survey?

If he says a Big Mac, fries and large shake is a balanced meal, should we poll nutritionists go see if they agree?

That's what he deserves, and that would wound him more than anything.
