Make sure people know: DONALD TRUMP says airports will stay fucked until Democrats agree to vote for the Women's Disenfranchisement ("save") Act.

Tell everybody who complains about airports, everyone who complaints about gas prices, anyone who complains about anything: Donald Trump HIMSELF will not let it get fixed UNTIL 21 MILLION WOMEN are disenfranchised.

And that they need to strap in and hold steady, because we cannot let that happen.

@moira We're kind of benumbed at this point, but I think it's worth highlighting: Trump says to the reporter "Ok, you have a scoop." The president of the United States is cold-calling reporters (only from right-wing outlets of course) to place stories. In the Before Times this was something a junior assistant to the press secretary did, and then only on background.

@moira In a horrible way, it reminds me of the movie Sweet Smell Of Success, with Trump in the Tony Curtis role. (Who's Burt Lancaster in this scenario, you may ask? I dunno but I'm guessing I won't like the answer.)

@liferstate Never heard of it, I'm afraid. I should watch more old movies.

@moira It's really good! Tony Curtis plays an out-and-out slimeball, which is against type for him.
