The Media
Dear Gerry,
Let me surprise you: Trump’s right; the media is misleading. Don’t call an ambulance for me, because I’m still sane enough to see that Trump’s wrong in portraying the media as against him. The media has been a treasure trove, bestowing upon Trump millions of dollars’ worth of free advertising and exposure, much more than any other candidate was given.

The Sycamores (and Grandpa) were fun and funny but totally realistic. You all let the script play the humor without resorting to gimmicks...I can’t begin to tell you how impressed I am at the total effort of this production – Bravo!...
