We had another fantastic interview w/ Professor Sophia McClennen (@mcclennen65) of Penn State who's the foremost authority and satire and politics. We had lively discussions of the firing of Stephen Colbert and the South Park episode showing Trump in bed with Satan, as well as the general role of comedy in taking on Trump. Trump is thin-skinned and has no ability to take a joke, so satirists and comedians have been able to put him into meltdowns . . . .About Our GuestSophia A.
