We realise that Trump hates us but, at the same time, he's a sex offender and best mates with a nonce... actually, many nonces.
We don't generally care what anyone thinks of us but... y'know... kids.
Now release the Epstein Files.

Wall-to-wall coverage of a millionaire’s superyacht sinking yet, while I obviously sympathise with all the families and don’t underestimate their pain, if that was a boat full of poor people the media would have moved on by now to an octopus predicting the premier league winner.

Interesting to know that people in seventeenth-century France (well, the Cardinal de Richelieu at any rate) were already complaining about too many people, especially the lower classes, going to university and studying the ‘wrong’ kind of subjects. Source: R J Knecht, Richelieu (1991), p. 154.
