the enormous word salad continued

so how
would you curb inflation
and bring
prices down
the interviewer
asks
the candidate
who can't
stop laughing.
seemingly filled to the brim
with laughing
gas.
well, she says.
as you know
i come from a middle
class
family,
my mother had to actually
work to earn
money.
twenty minutes later,
with still
no answer,
she says, i hate that other
guy.
he's the reason
this country is in such bad
shape.
which makes the audience
scream with
approval.
but you and Joe have had
four years
to do something about all
these problems that
you promise to solve.
why haven't you done it by now?
you don't like
strong women, or
women of color,
do you? she replies.
