what the hell? I had to look this one up "Gays, Trump Agree: D Should Be Easy!"

By J. Bryan Lowder

Donald Trump revealed today on Twitter that he, like all of us, is just waiting for that easy D.

Big increase in traffic into our country from certain areas, while our people are far more vulnerable, as we wait for what should be EASY D!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 8, 2017
Well, not all of us—not everyone seeks the D, of course. But for those of us who like D, even crave it, you have to sympathize with the president. No one wants to work too hard for the D.

I mean, I'm always looking for EASY D, but it's not as easy to come by as you might think. https://t.co/5S1RhmFs9c

Except maybe for this woman:

No D worth having comes easy

— Laura Turner (@lkoturner) February 8, 2017

D is very personal, no question. For my part, I would argue that most D—whether the sort that’s hard-won or the kind that just pops up in front of one's face—is a treasure. In any case, if you want the D to be easy, it’s best to have as much as possible on hand. Which, when you think about it, makes the part of Trump’s tweet bemoaning an influx of people somewhat confusing—isn’t the easiness of D directly correlated to how much D is available?

But who am I to question our president’s logic? He got where he is today due to his history of grabbing P, so I, for one, trust that he has just as firm a grip on D. And what a show of support for the gay community! Some might call Trump's D shout-out overly subtle, but don't worry, POTUS: We see you. And we are here to help.

Trump said the travel ban ruling should be an Easy D. Easy D is, of course, the new grading system under Devos along with Sad C and Bigly B.

Spicer: I can't do it. There's no way to make "Easy D" sound presidential. Kellyanne Conway: *smoking two cigarettes at once* Hold my beer.
