Trump Claims He’s Been Asked to Do a Vaccine Ad. (He Should.)

One of America's greatest presidents offers to do the nation one more service. If you have trouble reading this message, view it in a browser.       Mr. Trump, Sir, Your Plan to Do a Vaccine Commercial Is Tremendous and Everyone Loves You   Mr. President Donald J. Trump, whom we all love and cherish as one of our nation's greatest presidents, has announced his willingness to star in a commercial where he would communicate the safety and effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccines. His selflessness knows no bounds. To take some time out of his busy schedule to help others? It's shaping up as just the latest honorable act in a career of stellar service to the American public, who truly owe him a debt of gratitude for all he's done. OK, by this point I think we can assume that, should the big guy come across this, he would have stopped reading, assured that this is an article in praise of The Leader, and therefore True and Good.

It's not like we were having problems qua problems when I picked up a hardcover copy of the 1992 self-help best seller Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus: A Practical Guide for Improving Communication and Getting What You Want in Your Relationships, by John Gray, Ph.D., but after a year of quarantine, we weren't exactly in any position to be turning down marital advice in any form. Not to mention, Mark had recently started saying "Cool, cool, cool" every time one of his coworkers asked him to do anything, a habit I loathe. I don't want to kill him, but I don't not want to kill him. I'm sure he feels the same way about me.

That's the last quote from Anthony Bourdain on the last page of his last book, World Travel, a travel guide from a world traveler who hated travel guides, out today. He's talking about the vendors at the Ben Thanh Market in Vietnam, but you could take it as a final message on being a good tourist from Bourdain, who died in 2018 after building a towering reputation as the best tourist. More or less, he's telling you to engage with the people, to be daring but contentious. That's the Bourdain way, and this book, which his assistant and co-author Laurie Woolever painstakingly stitched together from past Bourdain quotes, her own research, and interviews with people who worked with Bourdain on the ground, marks his last word on the subject.
