Bizarro World is a fictional planet featured in DC Comics.
In popular culture it's come to mean a situation or setting which is weirdly inverted or opposite to expectations.
With that, I give you the 2016 Presidential Election which has to be the most bizarre one in our history.
You couldn't pick - but their party's perversely did - two more unpopular candidates than Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. How is that even possible?
How bizarre can it get when people say they like Trump because "he says it like it is." This in spite of the reality that he's seldom bothered with facts.
Hillary Clinton represents the Democratic establishment that's at odds with millions of Americans. Bernie Sanders represents change, but Clinton's political clout is too well embedded in Washington circles, for him to effectively challenge her.
In this bizarro world there will be no winners after the election is over.
The clash between the ideological segments of our society will continue.
The anger will only get worse with the regime change.
It's sad watching America spiral out of control with no hope of a hero/Superman to show up at the last minute and save us. If this were a comic book we could all escape this chaos and go back to the real world.
Time for me to walk on down the road...
