What do these people expect? Did they really expect a documentary on a nude model/sex worker gold digger turned First Lady with zero accomplishments other than a few plagiarism scandals to be of interest to people struggling to put food on the table and keep the roof over their heads?

She's a wholly unremarkable person given the massive opportunities she's been afforded to be something special.

#3 Ingratitude is a Cardinal Sin

How about we start taxing the uber-wealthy who have, for the past 40 years, been able to dodge their financial responsibilities that provide them with a country that protects them and their money and their property?

Not to mention the fact that this country has given them, the uber-wealthy, a nation of publicly educated wage-earners who can afford to buy their products/services?

How about that?

Afterall, ingratitude is a Cardinal Sin.
