Performance? It's not like he is an actor looking for good reviews; or perhaps he is; I don't know anymore. Two years of a lunatic running the country into the ground has numbed my brain so I can't think straight. Maybe it's all just a really bad play and we're the unlucky audience....looking at all the lousy performers.
Time to pull the curtain on this whole disgusting production.
