THE WALLS COME TUMBLING DOWN: Trump Plaza, the first casino and hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey, owned by former President Donald Trump before he took office, was demolished with a controlled implosion Wednesday, Feb. 17. The building was in business from 1984-2014. Trump's other Atlantic City properties included the former Trump World's Fair, since demolished, and the former Trump Taj Mahal, now the Hard Rock.

He had been battling advanced lung cancer but continued to host his show while undergoing treatment, CNN reported. During my childhood in the 1990s, my parents were more likely to listen to NPR, but I definitely knew who Rush was. For better or for worse, he was a part of the national conversation for many years, whether shaping it or at least giving his two cents.
