Everything you said, 100% a matter of public record for anyone who wants it, AND YET...we are STILL supposed to be spellbound by Trump making an "apolitical" move to install loyalists on the board and spray his foul scent all over the institution itself. And those of us who SEE that are "woke." I think I got all of that correct, right?
