The White House
October 27, 2019
DT: Son, why aren’t
you ready to go to the game? I told the
staff to lay out your blue suit and red tie!
BT: Gee, Dad, I don’t
think I can make it.
DT: What do you mean you
can’t make it? You don’t understand. Today’s a big day because your Daddy killed
a very bad man. The crowd is going to go
crazy when they see me … um, us, I mean, when they see us.
BT: Way to go,
Dad, killing that guy. But I forgot that I had this important
paper to write for tomorrow about, um, about … about how America is so much better
than all those loser countries, or something like that.
DT: Homework? Don’t worry, I’ll just call …
BT: No, Dad, please
don’t yell at the teachers again. I really
wish I could go and see all the people cheering you [stifles giggle], it’s just
that I have this paper to write on trees, or something.
DT: Trees? I thought
you said it was about how great America is.
BT: See how much work
I need to do?
DT: Well, it’s too bad you can’t make it.
BT: Dad?
DT: Yes, son.
BT: I’ll go to the game
if you can answer one question.
DT: Shoot.
BT: What’s my name?
DT: Are you kidding,
Earl … I mean Duke … no, Barron. That’s
it, Barron, so …
BT: [Turning on iPad] Enjoy the game, Dad.
