This was a much more enjoyable article to read than many these days. They even managed to skewer Adams.

I did grit my teeth at the absolutely sitcom-level evil authoritarian language from Nancy Mace though. Get better writers you fucking clown! This is the kind of line people write into obvious satire. Did you ask them next whether he was "a great president or the greatest president?"

The hearing took a turn when Representative Nancy Mace of South Carolina demanded mayors answer inflammatory yes-or-no questions, including whether they “hated President Trump more than they loved their country”.
