Don’t need Roth’s weak parable starring the nearly unseen Lindbergh, heavy melodrama allied to an authorial nostalgia, as teetering armature! You’re not old enough to recall Jimmy Stewart in that 1957 blockbuster apologia for Lucky Lindy, directed by Billy Wilder? I’m tired of Republicans of all stripes condemnation of fascist bully boy Trump, he’s all yours, from the ‘Generation of Treason’ to capo Karl Rove: a culmination not an aberration. The really unpleasant truth is hard to face, for a Party whose raison d’etre is political nihilism. Neo-Cons,No-Nothings,Theocrats,Dixiecrats and Free Market Grandees, better knows as thieves. ‘At long last sir, have you no shame?’
