Hence his reaction. He had everything planned out.

It’s all in his upper lip: it’s not stiff, it’s terse.

This is exactly why dictators fear humour, and why a man like Trump despises Alec Baldwin and obsesses over SNL’s mocking him.

Does Malta have anything similar? Scathing humour, parody and ridicule is such a great tool to show flimsy lies and misdirection for what it is.

But I fear some of it would be lost because irony and sarcasm is often taken literally there.

They want to have a good connection with the outside world when they are behind bars.

People are commenting here that he looks confident, but to me he looks totally opposite.
