Good night, orange dotard. Enjoy your stupid corrupt pardons tomorrow. It’s about the last thing you’ll ever do as president…
It’s possible that his sharpie. crayon or whatever will break or run out just before close of presidential term, and a repalcement not found in time either.
OR
He gets so engrossed with his latest coloring-in book that he loses all track of time…
I was talking with my neighbours the other day and we literally could not come up with one single positive thing to say about Trump or his adult family. Not one thing. Hitler’s Germany promoted anti-smoking campaigns based on science showing links between smoking and lung cancer, as well as laws cleaning up food and water. Saddam Hussein supported free health care, literacy and free education, including for women, in Iraq. Osama bin Laden exhibited the traditional Islamic virtues of generosity and personal restraint. But I cannot think of one single even remotely positive thing to say about any of the adult Trumps.
guest, I’m with you. I can see the benefit of always looking for the good in people, but there are some people that don’t have any evident good, and sooner or later, we’ll run across someone like Trump who impresses that on us. Even my brother, whom I detest, and who is very much Trump-like, is willing to help someone in need, and has the one big value of hating Trump (though I cannot for the life of me figure out why; Trump seems like the candidate he’s always waited for. Maybe the vulgarity? I won’t ask, because I do not speak to him; my son passes on that tidbit, because he has followed my brother on Facebook.)
For Trump and the Trumplings, I think there is real danger in trying to push positive characteristics into his persona; we need to remember him honestly, just like we need to remember Reagan honestly, and that does in his case mean remembering that he was a pleasant human being who was genuinely loved by many people, and that he was able to make jokes about himself.
I was going to directly ask, but got distracted, whether anyone else could think of a positive thing to say about the adult Trumps. I remember Hillary Clinton was asked to say something positive about T in a debate and she said ‘his kids are really loyal.’
I’ve been saying all along that I don’t know of a single thing about Trump that’s not utterly repellent. I could say the same about the juniors but I don’t know enough about them for that to mean much. In the case of Trump himself though, we’ve all been forced to know more about him than we ever wanted to, so yes, it’s striking how empty the On the Plus Side column is.
I’ve mentioned before that I know someone who knows someone who had to sit next to him at a dinner event and found him loathsome.
In the 80s, my father, who was a real estate lawyer, went with his client to do some real estate deals with Trump. They kept meeting, but Trump had no interest in negotiating. He would just sit in his chair and say nonsense, contradicting himself constantly. It was his way or the highway — usually the highway, because he was terrible at getting people to want to do deals with him. Eventually my father and his client gave up and walked out, and no deal happened.

This conjures up the image of the Orange one exploding like a bomb when the countdown reaches zero. A very pleasant image indeed :D
36 hours 28 minutes.
Soon I’ll go to sleep, and then, as if in the blink of an eye, we’ll be 7 hours closer.

Something grabbable comes into his visual field…
OR
Something else distracts him.
OR
There’s many a slip ‘twixt cup and lip.

One feels for the poor convict, counting down the days to go on the wall of the dreary cell..
This is the one I’ve got:

And that, my friends, is the Art of the Deal.
One good thing that Trump did? The stimulus check. Although I never received mine, and have no idea what happened to it.
There were a very few things done by the Trump administration that I approve of. There was not a thing done by Trump himself that I approve of.
