Mr. Trump---about these hurricanes headed for our Gulf coast---

could you please use your Sharpie and juste re-route them? Or, maybe just draw a big seawall all along the Louisianna and Texas shoreline to protect all that property and save the insurance companies a LOT of money.

We know you're busy planning a real doozy of a GOP convention, but this would just take you a second and then you could take credit for the rescue in your great acceptance speech. Just think of the visual aids you could use: not just maps but an actual VIDEO of YOU, Sharpie in hand, defeating Laura and ---heh, heh---L'il Marco!

Go for it, sir!

To "St. Michael" Pence: hoping for a miracle is not the same thing as

having a plan.

Have that inked in just below the "MOTHER" tat, OK?

How many times has a Trumpie done or said something so outrageous that you were

virtually speechless and then, after the fact, thought "I should said__________"? Why not decide on your own personal "one size fits all" response now and memorize it, even practice saying it in the tone you are comfortable with?

Something like "Are you REALLY that ignorant or do you just think I am? Should I feel disgusted or insulted?" That is an appropriate response to anything from "The virus is a hoax" to "Trump is a legitimate POTUS".

And, yes, I have used that, but you go with something you are comfortable with. The key is being ready with an instant slash-back because they are expecting to get away with their noxious BS while we sputter.

I am very dissatisfied with the "polite and respectful" tone of the Democrats questioning

DeJoy. They are not kissing ass, but they sure as hell aren't kicking any.

I have wood to split. Later.

Democratic Senator Carper's video connection initially failed and when it did connect,

his first broadcast words were "FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!"

August 21, 2020

I am watching and listening to DeJoy "testify" and I cannot avoid recalling an old but apt

descriptive phrase: "nervous as a whore in church".

To those that offends: get over it.

Serious suggestion: IF the debate proceeds on September 29, the Biden campaign should

have some beefy security personnel stationed close to the stage. Remember how Trump "stalked" Clinton on the stage, stood close behind her, etc.? In this pandemic, the maskless Trump should not be permitted to approach Joe.

As an aside, I am in the "beefy" category and would be very "enthusiastic" about repelling "IT".

It does seem that Trump's lost his luster

'Cause all he has left is his bluster
There's a name for this jerk
But it's Not Safe For Work
So, I'll just say that it starts with "Cluster"

To those in the Trump base who sent money to Bannon---here's a new way to support the

Trump regim---er---Trump administration.

For a limited time, your contibutions to "Pervs 'n Grifters For Trump", an official Section 573.666(d) 27 organization, will be matched by funds made available by a group of tropical resort owners who wish to remain anonymous. And, if you give us your Social Security number and major credit card info in the next two hour and seventeen minutes, we'll send you a sample bottle of Rush's "Lil Blue Pills"!

Do it NOW! Text "Trumpsagenius " to "PLS SCREWME" and a trained financial facilitator will assist you.
