Why not both?
His handlers let him be unhinged because it distracts from what they’re doing to us.
He’s a lifelong man-child and his “parents” let him tantrum.

At a slight tangent, the film version of ‘I Am A Camera’ (which is based on the same source material) is also worth seeing. No songs, though.

I support the cast of Hamilton 100% and I condemn the statements made by Trump after the cast of Hamilton petitioned Pence with their concerns.

One can only wonder what will happen when Broadway, later this year, needs to reapply for their Arts, tax break they get every year not from NY but from Congress, you know The House of Representatives who holds the purse strings and just happen to be presided over by the Vice President of the United States… Whatever happens it will be interesting.

I was unaware that you advocated that our government should act like an organized crime protection racket. I mean, I’m not surprised, but I was unaware. I mean, you claiming to be a police officer and everything, I figured that you’d be against that sort of thing.
I mean, you basically just went “That’s a very nice theater there. Shame if anything happened to it.”

We’re missing a very important point here:
What the hell was Mike Pence even doing at Hamilton in the fiirst place?
Does the GOP suddenly like Broadway shows? Does he rap the lyrics to himself in the shower? Does he secretly dream of getting off at Avenue Q?

My bet is that its a status thing. Given the cost and scarcity of the tickets, and the high profile of the show, my personal thought is that he went as a conspicuous consumption act. Or, in other words, showing that he has similar attitudes to Trump–he can identify that something is of value. But not why it is of value, or the merits that grant it that value. But the fact that it is of value means that he must have it, or have access to it. But that’s out of appreciation for the dollar sign attached to it, and not the message, or skill, or passion.

He was there with his daughter and her cousins, apparently. I’m betting they wanted to go and dragged him along.

I can just imagine him sitting there, bitching about how he would have been better off watching football on TV in the hotel.

Alternatively, maybe he was looking for pointers on how to kill people and stay Vice-President.

Dick Cheney only shot a lawyer in the face. Burr killed Hamilton. Burr wins.

You’d think that Cats would add a “don’t grab us mr. president”…
Bingo, they should be glad they weren’t invited to a historical re-enactment in the ford theater?

Yeah, that was kind of the joke I was going for with the “Mr. Mistoffelees” comment…
