texts of his shakedown calls with foreign leaders.

And maybe his ghostwriter of Art of the Deal throwing him under the bus, too.

They can give him some picture books in there to pass the time with, and that can be his "Presidential Library".

They're private, not-for-profit entities that operate with private funding.

Maybe Mr. Big Bucks can fund it himself or, as he usually does, find some suckers to pay for it and slap his name on it. I can only imagine what it would look like.

It will chronicle Trump's rise to greatness, and describe in explicit detail how the evil, horrible Democrats held a coup to remove the greatest president America has ever known.

I say we let Trump put it in a cell on the first level of Alcatraz, but only if we put him in a cell on the second level.

There's too much Russian money looking for a haven for it not to happen.

It will probably be at Doral or another Trump Org property in Florida. Maybe they'll buy something next to Mar-a-Lago and tear it down. There's a parking lot to the SW across Southern Blvd. that looks to be about the right size - looks like that's where Mar-a-Lago's Maintenance facility is located.

I'm not joking.

Presidential libraries aren't funded by the Feds. They might get some random dollars here and there, but largely it's donations.
