The fact that Donald Trump frequently falls asleep in meetings, the bruises on his hands, and the marks on his neck are on the world agenda.
What do you think is wrong with Trump?
@JoyceCarolOates Late night TV, especially Steven Colbert, is cutting, funny, and serious about Trump. And journalists at the Washington Post, including art critics like Philip Kennicott, are witty and damning onGreat piece today on the imperial ARCH DE TRUMPH.
@JoyceCarolOates Agree! Only available now through private guided tours, & much of it now property of Michael Jackson. Carolyn Goodman, who was a year ahead of me at Bryn Mawr, was a great mayor of Las Vegas, the second woman in the job, and promoted it as a base for professional sports.
@JoyceCarolOates In 1984, ultra- conservatives from Dartmouth, led by Dinesh d’Souza, moved to Princeton and started a quite vicious rightwing magazine called Prospect.
Looking at Trump’s plans for a huge, gilded, and grotesque imperial arch in DC, and fearing he will also commission a huge seated self- statue and put it in the “Trump and Lincoln memorial”.
