The Moral Suicide of Trump’s Supporters Was On Display in Minneapolis

They have given too much of themselves to The Leader to go back now. They will support him, no matter what he does, until he is stopped. If you have trouble reading this message, view it in a browser.       Trump's Minneapolis Rally Was a Demonstration of the Moral Suicide Pact He's Made With His Supporter   It was surely a swift process for some people. Here's a talk-radio soundboard running for president, yelling about Mexicans and Muslims and how we need a Big, Beautiful Wall to keep Those People out. He knows whose country this is. He knows who should make the rules, and who ought to shut up and follow them. He knows who gets a seat at the table in America. They were in from the jump, from the moment they first stood at a rally and felt that twisted power coursing through their veins.

Back when Better Call Saul was announced, confirming long-simmering rumors that Bob Odenkirk would be leading his own Breaking Bad spinoff, I—a diehard BB fan from day one—was not stoked. Not because I didn't love Odenkirk's gleefully sleazy Saul Goodman as much as the next fan, but because any addendum to the show felt like tempting fate. It's rare that a critically beloved, smash-hit prestige TV show sticks the landing (insert obligatory Benioff & Weiss joke here) and the Breaking Bad finale defied the odds. Walter White's journey from mild-mannered teacher to craven drug lord wrapped up on a note that was so appropriately cathartic and tragic that any kind of follow-up seemed like a very bad idea.

I Have Regrets.   When Wilco released their sixth studio album, 2007's Sky Blue Sky, I wrote a scathing review for Pitchfork that introduced the world to the term dad-rock: "An album of unapologetic straightforwardness. Sky Blue Sky nakedly exposes the dad-rock gene Wilco has always carried but courageously attempted to disguise." I gave the record a score of 5.2 out of a possible 10, and that line became the breakout blurb.

Thank you. Read More           In the Tall Grass Is Stephen King At His Most Twisted. Here's What Really Happened At the End of the Netflix Film.   While much of Stephen King's work is set in small-town Maine, he's also woven tales of terror set all around the country. And in multiple stories, King's offered some advice for roadtrippers—don't stop driving. Whether it's the couple who wind up the prey of a child cult in "Children of the Corn," or the unfortunate pair who end up trapped in small town inhabited by the ghosts of dead rock stars in "You Know They've Got a Hell of a Band," the King oeuvre is full of reasons never to stray from the interstate.
