When poor old Doris from down the street is sold a home alarm system by a shonky door to door salesman, we (quite rightly) think of Doris as the victim.

But,

• When the salesman turns up in a car marked “Dodgy Dave’s alarms n’ fraud”,
• When Doris has already bought the “World’s sharpest” knives which turned out to the be exactly the opposite and the “Most legally powerful” Vacuum cleaner which only served to spread dirt around the place from the same guy,
• When Dave himself can’t help but chant “she’s signing it, she’s signing it, I can’t believe she’s signing it” out loud as Doris writes the cheque for the last of her life savings and
• When *all* of Doris’ neighbours hold signs outside her house saying “don’t do it Doris” as the guy pulls into her driveway…

…you can’t help but wonder if Doris had it coming.

The party of personal responsibility seems shocked by the idea that Trump was a grifter all along and one by one, they expect us to believe that they didn’t see it coming.
