Under Trump the country is inflicted with a daily stream of drama that makes the movie Bulworth look understated.
Accidentally giving Russians classified information is part of the fun
Making a simple phone call becomes an embarrassing tragedy upon a tragedy

I never thought I would see a Congressional Medal of Honor Winner (Col Jacobs) fighting back tears over witnessing the shame of of watching a draft dodging President disparage a widow at the time she is experiencing overwhelming loss.
Republicans you should be proud of the drama that you have fostered on the public. Watching the daily clown car of disgusting, perverted actions of this man has brought great shame to the country.

meaning "Goat Song"?
Can you think of a better description for Dotard's speaking?

to the best choral dance performance. The prize was the slaughtering of the goat, "Tragodia" is a reference to the song that leads to the sacrifice of the goat, not the sound that the goat made.

Yes, I know it refers to the prize. Maybe this admin is closer to a satyr play?
