Trump is a greedy, freeloading, white privileged, silver spoon all the way up that ass kinda business man. The slimiest. His posse and supporters are an old festering wound on America. I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired.

I hear what you guys are saying about the Oscars, and how they're a celebration of life, and the show must go on, blah-blah-blah, so-on-and-so-forth. It all makes a degree of sense, but to me it still feels like Nero fiddling while Rome burns. Or in this case, wearing fancy clothes while LA burns.
