We tend to overreact to elections and assume they’re valid roadmaps to future success, even though it’s just based on one crazy night and results are based on thousands of factors, none of which can be controlled against. Clinton doesn’t get sick? She wins. Comey doesn’t reopen the investigation? She wins. Clinton…

I don’t think Dunne had a more sympathetic audience - I think he was just better than Letter was at the argument.

Don Jr.’s grandfather was arrested at a Klan rally, and was then set free without charges.

Neither of the Nolans can ever write a coherent third act. They’re fantastic at worldbuilding and setting up mystery boxes, but when it comes down to the finale, they always whiff.
