“Be courteous to all, but intimate with few,” George Washington said. Taking a slightly different tack, President Donald Trump tweeted on Tuesday to admonish performer Bette Midler for attributing a fake quote to the president. “Washed up psycho @BetteMidler was forced to apologize for a statement she attributed to me that turned out to be…
The Jerusalem Boy’s Choir released a song about President Trump, in which they praise him as “Super Trump.” In the video, the group of children sing about the U.S. president’s support of Israel. They’re heard but not seen; the video is a montage of Trump. His headshot flips on screen throughout, as does the video…
