In an interview with the Guardian, filmmaker John Waters -- creator of cult classics "Pink Flamingoes" and "Female Trouble" -- lamented the rise of Donald Trump by claiming he ruined "bad taste," a hallmark of Waters's storied filmmaking career.
Reflecting on his career during which he has been called "the Pope of Trash, the Sultan of Sleaze, the Duke of Dirt, the Baron of Bad Taste, the King of Puke and Queer Confucius," Waters was asked about his influence on "camp" in the arts and why it has faded away as a cultural touchstone.
