Fortunately, Trump is blameless as he had everyone sign a disclaimer if you got coronavirus at his event. Worked exactly as planned, didn't it?
Stable genius indeed.

Yes, who didn't see that commercial 1000's of times who was around then. Commercials today are not as repetitive and annoying anymore.

As to Wilford, I didn't know he was still alive. Never would have known his name, but recognize him as the Quaker Oats old man easily.

He was one of those actors who never broke into leading man much but did well playing an older, no-nonsense, half-a-grouch character. Kind of actor who looks like he was born 60 years old.

What is ironic is that he started assuming that old man part in tv and commercials when he was 40 years old. he always looked 20 years older than his actual age.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

Some might recognize Wilford Brimley as the Postmaster General on Seinfeld. I can’t find a YouTube of that scene. I guess keeping Seinfeld footage locked up.
Here is a scene from an excellent Paul Newman movie called Absence of Malice. Funny, he had mostly small parts but when he was on screen, he dominated the room.

He had a small part in Electric Horseman
and was memorable. He always steals
every scene he's in.
