Paul Rudnick's COASTAL ELITES brilliant take on trumpism, included a vignette by Issa Rae whose character went to boarding school with Ivanka. Ivanka's friends pledged not to blame her for her dad's misdeeds, as they wouldn't blame Courtney Stalin or Chelsea Noriega. I hold every trump responsible

GOP sacrificed democracy to keep the filthy greedy amoral rich untaxed...even if they kill millions and protect a child rapist
