an astounding 70 years ​in public service ​of ​her fellow Americans

They didn’t love her. She was suing them for using the Schlafly name for their own businesses.

Welp...

I absolutely love 10 Thing I Hate About You, but it was utterly disappointing when I finally read Taming of the Shrew and discovered that Petruchio is a raging misogynist while Kate is hardly a feminist (or even a proto-feminist). It sort of tainted the movie for me. Still love this scene, though:

My favorite part was when Trump had to wear the Jewish prayer shawl.

The people I know who saw it say that it’s a decent film but it was the (edgy) material that drove the interest and not the actual filmmaking although the acting throughout is above average.
