ABOVE: Crazy, illustrated demographics about NYC. How could only 10% make $100K? I guess those people must own or rent multiple apartments, 'cuz you're supposed to make 40x your monthly rent, annually, in order to be approved a lot of places.
The family that preys together: Trump, Ivanka & Jared (Images by Francis Krow)
Transparent Falsehood, Gil Kofman's apocalyptic biography of Donald J. Trump, probably deserves one of those trendy trigger warnings, and the play knows it — but the play isn't genteel enough to let you know what's coming down the pike. Neither is life. Hence: 45.
Before the show, a woman next to me felt me out to make sure I wasn't a Trump supporter before telling me she'd recently been asked by a vacationing family how to kill a few hours around Lincoln Center before taking in a music program. She said she'd given them ideas, then urged them to avoid Columbus Circle, which may be filled with a Trump protest. She then asked the mom if Trump were her president, to which the mom replied, Yes, and we'll agree to disagree. My seatmate wasn't having it, instead telling their teens that the music program they were going to see was federally funded and urging them to have a chat with their parents later.
That's one way to address the international horror that is Donald Trump, and Transparent Falsehood is another.

Steve Bannon (video still via ABC News) has arrived to testify before the Senate.
Let's hope he screws Trump bigly, but considering his recanting of his negative comments in Fire and Fury, I doubt it.
But hey, at least we have a (hilarious) video that captured the moment he smugly set foot on site ...
Via WaPo: Well, Larry Flynt's still alive, so I guess people aren't ready to call him a disgusting exploiter of women and overlook any positive aspects of his legacy, as was in fashion when Hugh Hefner died. So while he's still kickin', he's kickin' Trump — he's offering $10 million for “information leading to the impeachment and removal from office of Donald J. Trump” ...
According to a report, Trump enjoys teasing VP Mike Pence about his religious convictions, and has even joked that Pence wants to “hang the gays.”
We're worried about Harvey Weinstein (and should be, but still) and this is who's in the Oval Office. (Speaking of Weinstein, there is a report his company could fall into the hands of a billionaire Trump crony. Perfect.)
Keep reading for more on Trump's ghastly stand-up act ...
