...and Trump refused to visit him in the hospital because he had AIDS.

Excellent scene about the end of Cohn's life from the miniseries Angels in America, starring Al Pacino as Roy Cohn and Meryl Streep as the ghost of Ethel Rosenberg:

Not the twisted, evil monster Shakespeare wrote about. I'm a huge Shakespeare fan, and met my wife while acting in a production of 'Richard III'. But The Bard was writing the play during the reign of the granddaughter of the man who supplanted Richard III on the throne; of course it was going to be a hatchet job.

But the real Richard was an able administrator, a brave warrior, and a loyal family man. (I'm convinced it was Henry VII, and not Richard, who put to death the Princes in the Tower.)

Anyway, Richard III was every good thing that Trump is not, and never could be.
