to admire the optimism of Elton John when he says that Donald Trump could, if he put his mind to it, end the scourge of AIDS. Elton’s hope is that Trump may listen to him because he loves his music which he played at all of his election rallies.

Slight problem there, Elt. Since taking office, Trump has disbanded the Presidential Advisory Council on AIDS and wants to cut the money America gives to international AIDS relief programmes, precisely because the majority of people at his rallies believe the disease is God’s righteous punishment for being homosexual.
