9. Are you kidding? He won't get the true meaning, but the manufactured "MAGA" bastardization? Absolutely...

--where those manning the barricades are those horrible Liberal/AntiFA "Insurrectionists?

The 'law and order MAGA', Inspector Javert is Stephen Miller
Jean Valjean is the "unredeemable common thief" who represents all liberals in his mind
Cosette' is Ivanka--if Ivana had done to her what the horrible "prostitute" Fantine had done to the innocent Cosette'
Eponene' is the "horrible liberal activist," Greta Thunberg

And the unspoken "beleaguered hero" at the June Rebellion (wow, how history rhymes) is the French monarch, Louise Phillipe I (obviously Trump, himself)


So, no. The whole play/musical can readily be reversed and bastardized in this decrepit and demented Trump mind. He'll love it. And use it to become even more imperialistic, abusive, and self-aggrandizing.

Trump will always twist the truth and facts in his feted mind to suit his own narrative or agenda. No matter how absurd or unbelievably
ridiculous.
His world is only about him.

…in February of this year at the Governors’ Ball at the White House.

I wondered then if TACO Don even listened to the words or had any idea of the story. I’m guessing not.

bothering every one around him pretending to know the words. He will nod his head, not in time and he will pat his thigh getting ready to smile bigly and catch all kinds of accolades. He will think this was all done for him. Because he is so important he will get backstage and annoy everyone there.

Do they have stage door meet and greats there? I would guess not but if so he will not have a good time there I would suspect. He is too sick to not see himself as the good guy even while he relishes being the bad guy. They will eat him alive but he will never know it. That is the worst of Trump, he does not even know when people loathe him.
