If you weren’t able to make it down to A.C., don’t worry, you can watch the implosion over and over and over again at your leisure: “It’s an end of a not-so-great era,” Jennifer Owen, who bid $575 to win a front-row seat to the show, told The New York Times. On Wednesday morning, the derelict Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City was blown up before an audience of paying guests, after demolition crews placed approximately 3,000 sticks of dynamite around the structure to send its 34 stories crumbling to the ground. Luckily, this week has fortuitously brought with it some much-needed catharsis, in the form of a Trump property being literally blown to smithereens. That has unsurprisingly left millions of people feeling variously disappointed, confused, and angry, with few ways to channel their feelings (aside from hoping he’s hit with a never-ending tide of lawsuits and/or a prison sentence). Unfortunately, because of his inexplicable stranglehold on the Republican Party, he’s gotten away with all of it.
Donald Trump spent the last four years committing numerous crimes big and small, the most serious one being his incitement of the violent mob that attacked the Capitol on January 6.
