“The Wire” creator David Simon blasted Donald Trump as a “simplistic, racist moron” on Saturday, hours after the president branded Baltimore a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess” while criticizing Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings. Simon, quoting a Trump tweet calling out Cummings, skewered the president as an “empty-suit, race-hating fraud” that would “wet himself” if he spent five minutes in West Baltimore. If this empty-suit, race-hating fraud had to actually visit West Baltimore for five minutes and meet any of the American citizens who endure there, he’d wet himself. https://t.co/QBSed1S4c8 — David Simon (@AoDespair) July 27, 2019 Also Read: HBO…

On Thursday’s “The Daily Show,” Trevor Noah did a deep dive into student debt, and to illustrate the dire possible consequences, he rolled out a fake sitcom. On “Meet the Debts,” the gag is that debt will change family sitcoms to reflect the way families in real life will cope. The clip features Roy Wood Jr. as the Debt family father, Desi Lydic as the Debt family mom, and Jaboukie Young-White as their son, who is forced to move back home because he can’t afford to pay off his student loans. Cue plenty of three-camera sitcom cliches — audience cheers…

But that’s not all, as Noah saw it. “Just so we’re all on the same page, first we have the giant heat wave. We’ve got floods. Plus, there’s earthquakes in California, and…
