When Mike Pence came to Hamilton, the cast added a special afterword, just for him

I have been informed by someone very knowledgeable in such matters that he is not, in fact, “orange”. The correct description is “apricot”.

To ensure I do not end up on the receiving end of his twitter tirades I add this: Sieg Heil Great Apricot! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

No clothes, maybe. But shortly he’s going to have a lot of power. And that is a very frightening thought.

It’s not the worst thing that’s happened to a president in a theater. Trump should shut up and pull his thin skinned head out of his ass.

in a couple hundred years time cyber-liberals will be tripping over themselves to gushingly praise a vr nano-musical in which trump and pence et al are sympathetically portrayed by rappin mexicans and muslims

i actually think this is more important than the fraud, and here’s why:

none of us have any power over the lawsuit. knowing about it, or not knowing about it isn’t going to change minds. it isn’t going to change behavior, it does nothing for most people one way or the other.

the way the audience, and the way the cast, responded to pence however gives people some idea of what’s possible and permissible.

people now know: if they boo trump or pence, other people have their back. if you’re in the unenviable position of them soliciting your opinion or attending your event: you can give voice in a rational, straightforward manner.

the facts are: pence and what’s his name have harmed people in the past, and are threatening to harm more. these aren’t emotional arguments, they are facts. that the electoral college is likely to let them into the white house doesnt mean we have to normalize them and their behavior.

It’s the same with demagogues anywhere - they constantly lash out at anyone and anything, but have an extremely thin skin.

If there’s such a thing as an emergency Broadway revival, “Cabaret” is the one currently called for.

I’ve actually never seen that (kind of an oversight now that I think about it), but after your mention and @MikeR 's above, it’s going on the list.

The film version is spectacularly good. Liza Minelli’s performance in it redeems all the crap she made later in her career.

Seconded. The film is different from the play in several ways, but the themes are the same. The original version of the parody @tekna2007 posted works better in the movie, speaking volumes as it smoothly morphs from a simple song about the beauty of nature to a chilling marching song that almost everyone joins.

I wish I could find a version of that clip that includes the “don’t worry about Hitler, we’ll ditch him after he gets rid of the communists for us” dialogue at the start.

It’s going to be fun to see what Trump is live tweeting during the next White House Correspondents Dinner, isn’t it?

And here I thought us libtards were supposed to be the whiney ones…

Larry the Cable guy is going to savage him, surely!

I hope all decent journalists abstain from that circle jerk sure to be racist as every other aspect of his person.
