Default Central Park Five

May 31, NETFLIX is showing WHEN THEY SEE US, based on one of Trump’s favorite delusions about the Central Park Five. Can’t wait to see his tweets about it.

After twenty minutes, I had to stop and be sick.

For this alone, Trump should not have been elected president, or dog catcher. Or dog.

Best,

Ed

As the saying goes, don’t blame Trump; he did everything he could to show he was unfit to be president before the election.

Cheers,
John

Haha. True story, John. Further, he was stunningly virtuosic at it.

Cheers,
Erik

What new American proverb can we conjure that captures the essence of how Trump got to where he is now? What is the cautionary tale? The moral of the story? There's got to be some parable to be had from this all. Not that I think we should go all biblical or anything...

I feel like when the time finally comes to be rid of him I'm going to take a long, hot shower; for as long as the hot water holds out. Though I don't know what it must feel like to be literally raped, I imagine Trump's presidency to be a kind of slow political rape of the people. From all I've read on the subject, I do think that he fits the description of a rapist. I feel sorry to have to even say it, but it's how I feel.
