And he IS!

He's a regular snow cone!

I like Greedy Old Pirates too. As well as all of the selections you listed, OAITW r.2.0! One of my favorites is the Grab Our Pensions Party.

There's ONE thing that strikes you immediately (which is all donald is interested in, anyway - the quick hit). The first time I saw him in that context the thought that exploded in my mind was "THAT is the WHITEST white guy I have EVER seen!" I would bet that deep-down, that's what trump thought, too. And realized that he could use a guy like Albino man, who was gonna send a visual cue to all his racist fans who were flocking to his rallies. He knew they were fed up with having to live with the idea of a black guy in the Oval Office who wasn't the janitor. He knew that's all they cared about. He understood the deep, visceral weakness and the silent not quite-buried prejudice - that nobody leaning toward that side of the aisle wanted to say out loud but still felt deeply on the inside.

pockets and bank accounts.

They've been at this for a long time.

After daddy sought bankruptcy protection for, I believe, the sixth time, no American banks wanted to take a risk on him anymore. So he went to Russia. And for awhile he could function under the radar because he was a private citizen and Manhattan gadabout and media playtoy. And nobody cared.

He was just that crazy New Yorker with the big mouth and bigger ego who was an amusing camera-hogging attention whore, a clown in an expensive business suit, who'd say anything and do anything to get more attention and tabloid headlines. He was someone whose marriages, divorces, hotels, and high-life you laughed at. He was the human version of candy you shouldn't eat before dinner or because it'd rot your teeth and/or make you fat, but you liked eating it anyway, even while you knew there was no nutritional value whatsoever. A cheap thrill. Empty calories. Just like the donald.

Just like Al Franken.

Mike DENSE. Sure describes him.
