Omar says, "In Somalia, we execute pedophiles", and is accused of threatening Trump.

As a writer, I'm an amateur student of human psychology. (As a man married for almost 40 years with two adult kids, I could be considered semi-pro.)

I've got to think that a large number of Trump cabinet/lawyers/hangers-on are at the point, if not beyond the point, where it's clear they're fucked.

The social relevance of the Turning Point USA half-time show in comparison to the Bad Bunny Super Bowl performance is roughly equivalent to the cultural footprint Allen & Rossi left when they appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show with The Beatles.
