“The sad state of affairs thanks to a pompous businessman turned reality TV star (whose show consistently ran LAST in its time period, by the way) who thinks speaking his mind is refreshing,” Greenblatt wrote on his private Facebook page this week. “It’s actually corrosive and toxic because his ‘mind’ is so demented.”

“His effect will unfortunately linger long after he’s been told to get off the stage.”
