        Abe led the way feeding the fish first. But why is this even news? Are there not serious things happening in the world that merit attention?

        Your missing the point. Don gives us pure entertainment. Don’t think of him as President but more of a circus clown.

        You're missing the point - why is The Independent even considering this as news? If I want entertainment, I can watch a movie.
