      The Saudi-Trump Axis has managed to take something ghastly and tragic and make something ridiculous and absurd of it. No one can possibly believe this nonsense is true and yet we’re crediting it as a country. We look like morons.

      That's why I think the black gallows humor of the Coen brothers is the true aesthetic of the Trump administration.

          There’s a resemblance to the work of William S. Burroughs too. Imagine Trump as a half-focused surgeon who cuts open a patient as a cigarette dangles carelessly from his mouth.

          We saw Burn After Reading as a satire; they saw it as a how-to manual

          Def a Coen bros aesthetic but recently I can only think of the more absurd moments of The Sooranos. A good mix of stupidity, avarice and sociopathy.

          Sooranos? Goddammit. You know what I meant.
