Backstory culture has got to stop. It's fine to just let characters have a mysterious past (not that Gaston is exactly the best example of that) that gets loosely filled in.
I do not want Gaston backstory, I do not need Gaston backstory, I reject Gaston backstory

Is there no journalist who will treat this as the deranged, psychopathic rantings of a madman that it clearly is? All it would take is one.

Q: Mr. President, what the actual fuck? Do you know how evil, deranged, and indecent you sound?

Get banned from the White House, go down in history.
Q: A number of Republicans have denounced your statement on Rob Reiner. Do you stand by it?

TRUMP: Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned.
