In New York, our cabbie back to the airport was an Indian (I think, maybe Pakistani) Trump supporter. Mr. Clod engaged him in a discussion about it because he was curious. Basically it boiled down to the "successful businessman" trope and the fact that none of the buildings in NY have Clinton's name on them. But the cabbie also noted that several people had just opened the door and left the cab the minute they found out his political leanings. It's not a good era.

In other news, there's a fantastic movie on Netflix right now called "Look Who's Back," subtitled in German but well with it. The premise is Hitler somehow supernaturally wakes up in 2014, and gets right back to work, except people assume he's a deadpan character comedian a la Sacha Baron Cohen. It sounds weird but it is honestly hysterical.
