6. There's a motherhouse in Brentwood, Long Island,

an area where there are terrible problems with the MS 13 gang. Trump and Sessions have shown up in the area to grandstand and then fund raise in the tonier parts of the Island.

The nuns (mostly senior citizens) wait for his motorcade holding protest signs with polite, yet decidedly pointed messages concerning Trump's immigration and environmental policies. They're also busy setting up a sanctuary for undocumented immigrants on their property. (One of them confided to me in conspiratorial tones, "The young folks came by and showed us how to do it on the computer." )

Ya gotta love them.
