Its been a hellluva week in politics in the oldest democracy on earth.
A former president and the leading candidate for president is on trial for paying hush money to a porn star.
A leading contender for nominee for the office of vice president has proudly proclaimed she shot her dog because he didn't work out, and in the same breath lied about bravely facing down a world leader she never met.
And another presidential candidate has mentioned his brain was attacked by a parasitic worm.
You can't make this stuff up.
