Sunday Four-Play: Kos was on 'Meet the Press'! Also, debate fallout and mug shot mania

Welcome back to Sunday Four-Play, a weekly Sunday show review column wherein I pretend I don’t lie supine in the bathtub every Saturday night clutching a bong the size of a culvert pipe while desperately hoping our collective, eight-year waking nightmare ends before I’m forced to spontaneously exfil my long-beleaguered eyeballs with a discount Fleet Farm ice auger.

In other words, I find clips from the Sunday shows (four of them, to be precise), transcribe them, add some commentary, and hope it somehow helps me cope with the serial depredations of one Donald John Trump.

So the two big political stories of the week were Trump getting arrested and Republicans gathering for their first primary election debate to pretend it doesn’t matter.

Full disclosure: I did not watch the debate. Between the chloroform-suffused reproofs of Asa Hutchinson, the bath salts suppository that is Vivek Ramaswamy, and Ron DeSantis’ desperate attempts to pass the Turing test before anyone discovers he’s a semi-ambulant skin Furby being remotely controlled by a moist sack of lemmings, it was altogether too much to bear.
