I think for anti-Trump people, at least the ones who read (and anti-Trump people seem to read more than Trump supporters), many articles just re-state Trump's awfulness, but part of the enjoyment is the writer's skill - a clever analogy, a sarcastic turn of phrase, an apt detail or adjective.

Two things I've enjoyed in the last few days (and I specified April so that this doesn't end up as a thread spinning out into the endless future) are:

-Comey's comment that Trump seemed shorter than he expected. Okay, Comey's enormously tall, so everyone probably seems short to him, but I liked it because I think Trump enjoys looming over people, so I think the comment would particularly infuriate him.
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/12/u...omey-book.html

-The comment from W.H. staff that after watching Fox News, Trump "became unglued." I liked it when Matt Taibbi termed him "unhinged," but "unglued" was enjoyably descriptive for the immediate present.

Why do you think the world would be better off in pieces?
