The British: “Trump Is a Comically Repulsive Character in His Absurdity”
“I’ve always felt that Donald Trump was a Dickensian character because he is so ridiculous, with his hair and his arrogance. He is certainly a comically repulsive character in his absurdity.
– Miriam Margolyes
British-Australian character actress and comedian, Television Arts awardee
