Jimmy Carter and Donald Trump spent the same amount of time in the White House. Carter appointed no Supreme Court justices. Trump appointed one third of the court. Also Carter gave up his family's farm. Trump continued enriching himself.

MonsieurChoc posted:Yeah, that's why I was surprised at the climate doomer clip. The Newsroom might be the worst thing Aaron Sorkin ever did, and he's dogshit. The climate doomer clip is allowed to be good on the basis that it's supposed to be a joke - you're supposed to laugh at the absurdity of this completely deadpanning a hopeless future while Will is unable to tease any kind of positive outlook from him. It's still bad in the sense that it's presented as something that the audience isn't necessarily intended to believe because the guy is just way too pessimistic, and the takeaway is focused on the back-and-forth between him and Will and not about anything the dude actually says about the environment.
