I have received complaints about your post derogating Malone. She does not post nonsense posts, she is one of the most helpful people on the Crossword Forum so please watch your language.

Also, could you please STOP using capital letters for each word, it makes your posts very difficult to read. Capital letters are used for the first word in a sentence and for proper nouns.

Back to the pesky clue, 2D.

Unmoved, just like Trump crushing Republicans (10).

Most of us got the answer readily enough, but I haven't seen anyone come up with a full, satisfactory parsing. Any suggestions, ideas?

18 across -- I have u-n-m- and can't think of any fitting word at all. Have I gone wrong somewhere? The clue is 'Pictures of Chirac in email content'. Complete blank!

Whizzed through this one, but not sure about 20D.

A number of thumbs up Trump's behind - tens perhaps. (7)

? S ? E ? T ?

I'm thinking ASSENTS, but can't parse it.

Ignore my last post - the word came to me the second I posted it!

Hi Malone
I'm very much with you in thinking there is an error in the clue for 2D as you described. Shome mishtake, shurely! I was quite surprised that it was post 60 before anyone questioned that one.

Twit, thanks. I think I felt worse about this clue because I initially just stuck the answer in, and only later realised that it didn't work!
