The 3 biggest male movie stars in the World are Cruise, Pitt and DiCaprio .... none of them spring chickens. There seem to be no new young megastars. Cruise and DiCaprio were both mega stars by the time they were both 24. Probably the biggest young name now in Hollywood is Sydney Sweeney. I think Gloria was right ... the movies have got smaller ... and too many of them.

    The “according to Donald” bit was because while the news outlets were reporting that he had been shot, Trump said he was dead. Yes, after he announced it, the news changed.

    as for being a good debater, he wasn’t. He was a very good orator, but couldn’t debate a topic. When asked a difficult question he would change the topic or attack the person asking. That’s not debating
