I mean, it's tainted to the point of meaninglessness but I supposed it could have been worse. It's just funny to me, as someone who has several of his albums and his memoir, that Michael Crawford is just there because Trump is a Phantom of the Opera fan.

I started watching The Daily Show during the 2000 election. That's 25 years of this man being on my TV. It's going to be beyond strange not to have him there anymore. I'll be there for whatever he decides to do next.
