Because you do not have enough race and sex grievance mongering in your life, here's a reprise of my report about what is happening to the discipline of classics at the hands of this brigade of pampered, self-infatuated whiners. They are pathetic.

It's a curious fact, Seb, that "shameful" and "shameless" are synonyms in English. Buzzfeed is an utterly shameless, bottom-feeding purveyor of scabrous fake-news. That's shameful, but they are too inured to their own iniquity to be embarrassed.

I have a morbid curiosity. Do any of us think that anyone at @BuzzFeed is embarrassed about what they just did to @realDonaldTrump and America?

Trumprushed off stage in Nevada after threat. Comes back cool, calm, collected. Then heads off to Denver for 4th rally of the day. Amazing.
