Oops. I was thinking of Ed Bradley...

Ben Bradlee was played by Jason Robards Jr. in All the President's Men. Bradlee died back in 2014, but I assumed he passed away when Robards did, back in 2000. The fact that Bradlee had dementia in his last years probably accounts for the fact that he dropped from sight around that time. Anyway, Robards so made himself that character that there wasn't any room left for the original Ben Bradlee in the world, let alone Tom Hanks as Bradlee.

I heard that Trump had the vapors and had to be heavily sedated when he heard that Hanks would refuse to come to the White House.

Idiot hasn’t been asked. Like the designer that said he wouldn’t dress Melania. Buried deep in that story was the same “if I was asked” remark. Hanks isn’t even original.

There are those who say they have seen him clutching his pearls.

It must be agonizing for Trump.

Yes. I’m sure he barely slept at all last night from worrying about what Tom Hanks thinks of him...

Things do not go well so they want to hide and relive/relish in something from 43+ years ago and ignore the reality of today.

“Things do not go well for them...” is what I meant to say there.
