Cry me a river and call it the "Retribution"!

A GOBer buddy calls me up today and thought he could rattle my cage!

He starts out asking if I heard Trump’s speech from over the weekend? I said no, but was it about? Knowing I had, I wanted to hear my buddy’s version.

He said it was one of best speeches ever by Trump. By now, I am choking, trying not to laugh. He described how Trump used the “retribution” as a plan to retake the White House.

This went on for sometime, but ended when I asked him if he knew what “retribution” really means? My buddy paused for a moment and yeah he knew what it meant. He said it means “take back what was taken away from”.

Ummm, nope! I replied! It means “to avenge acts threw violent revenge, wage a plan for payback, to get even”.

He paused again and said Trump wasn’t that way and he hung up in discussed!

I won’t be talk to him for while! He only calls me to harass my political views! We were close friends many years ago before Trump was the anointed one ( )!
