I long for the civility…maybe there never was, but at least in public it appeared so
from that cnn article (by hutch's favorite reporter)
That some people will applaud Trump's trolling of a dead man is, perhaps, his most toxic legacy.can confirm

i spent a few minutes trying to confirm if that awful statement did, in fact, come from you-know-how because goddamit, it's written like a parody of what you'd expect him to say. i could not 100% confirm it, mostly because the publisher - Save America PAC - doesn't have a website. what. the. actual. fuck. search for it and you get a link to a "donate now" page on winred.com (which is just a fundraising/transaction service). how can they not have a website?
anyhoo, i couldn't go straight to the source since there isn't any, however the veracity of the statement has been questioned by many and the most common response is that the statement was issue via a fundraising email that many folks state is real.
yes, trump has become a parody of himself.

Tommy DeBarge bassist for Switch
based on the wikipedia entry for the DeBarge, looks like Tommy was one of the few of the 10 children who didn't have personal demons
the whole page is some serious Behind The Music stuff

Thanks for posting that link. Some fine reading.
This was my favorite part:
Since the release of "Addiction" Chico DeBarge has been sober and touring while recording a new CD.He was arrested in January of 2021 after a relapse. Authorities say he posed as his brother James at the time of arrest.

I watched Bosom Buddies when it was on way back when. At the time, I thought Scolari was going to be the bigger star.
