Ethan Coen Pens an Open Letter Asking Trump to Help Make American Poetry Great Again and Make Him Poet Laureate of the United States

Yep, Coen Brother Ethan Coen has joined the fray in taking satirical shots at the Commander-in-Chief that might go over his head if the irony or satire were explained separately. This open letter he posted at HuffPo asks Trump directly to be appointed as the Poet Laureate of the United States (even though Ethan is far and away known more for the movies and television that he makes)

We can’t help but think of this as gonzo-Coen Brothers storytelling. 

Ethan Coen even goes so far as to write in such simplistic language that even POTUS can understand it.
