"Too hasty" suggests they're going to get rid of all this non-white, non-straight or non-male content sooner or later.

The Goose that will lay golden eggs isn't even born, er, hatched yet and Trump wants to (oh, the irony) kill it.

Is this a step up or a step down from endorsing Goya? I can't decide. www.newyorker.com/news/our-col...
