THE PARISIAN WOMAN to change weekly, based on Trump's tweets

Thoughts on this? I think it's interesting and will certainly be funny, but not necessary.

I don't think it's meant to be funny, but then again - I don't know the tone of the play. All the descriptions make it sound like it's a serious drama with some added levity from ironic humor, at best. House Of Cards did an excellent job of keeping up with current times, even though they used to shoot their episodes months before they were aired. Most of the times, it still seemed fresh because of how Beau's mind was ahead of news cycles. I personally am looking forward to this, but I wouldn't expect anything more than a random 20 word change here and there.

Great, just what the Narcissist-in-Chief needs -- more attention.

Yeah, this is probably literally just going to be one or two incidental conversations or anecdotes that get tweaked.

I see much irony in that this reads exactly like one of Trump's tweets.

Except it's missing an exclamation mark or two.

The irony, which I fully expected, has everything to do with the typical, knee jerk reactions we've become accustomed to, and nothing to do with my opinion. I would have written the very same comment, if the person involved were Clinton. My tendency towards being a theatre "purist", and my distaste for the current political climate, are not an indication of support for Trump, unless you want them to be.

Fair enough. I'll take your suggestion.

"I see much irony in that this reads exactly like one of Trump's tweets.

I suppose the comment above, is all about Uma Thurman, and my unfair opinion of her talent? Perhaps "knee jerk" was a poor choice of terms to use on my part, but let's be honest, shall we?

It's "like" purely coincidental. I wrote what came to mind at the moment. Personally, I don't see the resemblance, but there's no point in splitting hairs over it. You obviously pay more attention to what Trump has to say than I do.
