Is it. They did the due diligence. They reviewed the work. And heck, it stands.

Meanwhile in Mar-a-lago, an ego burns with rage. Worth it to me. If you do not get how that scorches a mentality like his, you miss enjoying his pain. He is internally seething but filled with shame. He can’t hide the source of that shame. We all know. And it was validated once again. The world sees you for what you are Mister Trump.

And sorry, I bear grudges. I am enjoying envisioning that.

I think back to the White House Correspondents dinner when Obama roasted TFG and seeing him gently rock back and forth with a grim look on his face and I realize he wasn’t angry, he was completely consumed with rage.

… rejected Trump’s demand after it commissioned two independent reviews that were “conducted by individuals with no connection to the institutions whose work was under examination, nor any connection to each other.” Both reviews concluded that the awards stand “this guy is one world-class asshole,” adding “what a loser.”

Fixed.
