At his Colorado rally, Mr. Trump blasted the Academy Awards for naming “Parasites” the best movie of the year. Mr. Trump told his voter base Hollywood should bring back movies like “Gone With The Wind.”

“Parasites” is a dark comedy from South Korea. The film included English subtitles since the studio wanted to use Korean as the movie’s main language. When the studio heard about Mr. Trump’s comment, a studio official sent a reply-tweet that said: Understandable. Trump can’t read.


Former Intelligence Director John Brennan let the country know the full-blown national security crisis he warned people about before Trump sent him packing is now in progress. Russia will continue to interfere with the 2020 U.S. election. Mr. Trump lets the Russians help him, and then he denies he needs their help, according to Mr. Brennan.

Bernie Sanders has a double-digit lead over the other candidates in the race. Elizabeth Warren gave Mike Bloomberg a thrashing for being a sexist during the debate. And Bernie said Bloomberg’s stop and frisk program was a racist move. Mr. Sanders is the black sheep in the race. Trump was too, in 2016. All the moderate Republican candidates couldn’t stop Trump no matter how hard they tried. And Bernie’s campaign seems to have the same impact on the moderate Democrats.

Roger Stone will serve 40 months in an orange jumpsuit unless the president gives him a pardon. Mr. Trump insinuated Stone deserves exoneration during his Colorado rally. Mr. Trump spent a great deal of time bashing Adam Schiff and other Democrats at the rally. The president didn’t like the fact Schiff was in the intelligence briefing Joseph Mcguire gave the intelligence committee. Mcguire said Russia is in the process of interfering with Democratic primaries. Trump fired Mcguire after that briefing.

Federal Reserve Board members try to keep the conversation positive when they discuss economic growth in 2020. But now that the coronavirus continues to keep factories and businesses closed in China, the U.S. and Europe will experience a growth slowdown. China claims 70% of the factories are running again. But Apple officials said workers continue to call in sick, according to MarketWatch.

But Ren Zhengfei, Huawei’s CEO, made sure Huawei factories stayed open when other factories closed. Huawei’s supply chain won’t experience a major slowdown, according to Ren. Mr. Trump continues his quest to stop Huawei 5G expansion, but not all the countries he threatened will throw Huawei to the 5G curb. The UK just signed a cellular 5G program with Huawei, according to the New York Times.
