Who Is It For?

At dinner, a recent arrival from Europe started talking about Trump in an outraged voice. Everybody else stared uncomfortably into their plates, coughed, and changed the subject.

Even academics have had enough of this silliness. I keep wondering, all these prostitute payouts, lawyers, collusions – who is it all for? What percentage of the population is following and has any interest? The people I know are more politicized than most and nobody cares.

At the gym today, every channel went on and on with this ridiculousness for an hour. And I’m guessing it’s not an especially crazy hour.
