Hmmm…if you overlook the sailor suit part, the Stay-Puft marshmallow man does bear an uncanny resemblance to what a ghost version of trump might look like (complete with fat stubby fingers)… [![](https://ghostbustersnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/stay_puft_marshmallow_man_banner.jpg) ](https://ghostbustersnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/stay_puft_marshmallow_man_banner.jpg) ---

Not to mention the terror dogs do remind me of Stephen Miller. And poor Dana did have a pretty rough time of it. ---

Reminds me of David Letterman, who once long ago, in a Top Ten list of Fun Things to Do in NYC, included, “Check into a Times Square hotel and open the Gideon’s Bible; look out the window and check off the Ten Commandments as you see them being violated.” As with Trump’s June 2020 photo-op appearance at the church across the street from the White House, I’m a little surprised the Bible doesn’t burst into flame at his mere touch. ---

> [@Procrustus](#): > > He also said “Make America Pray Again.” I’m not sure how he’s going to make us, but I’ll resist that one. You and me both. I’d rather shove my face into a nest of angry wasps. But I do think Trump should continue to run on this nonsense. The – what is it now, 28%? – of Nons are a rather underappreciated voting bloc. I expect we’ll come out in force to vote if we feel our rights to continue as Nons is threatened with potential new laws requiring us to pray. ---

> [@Aspenglow](#): > > I expect we’ll come out in force to vote if we feel our rights to continue as Nons is threatened with potential new laws requiring us to pray. He won’t need a new law, he just needs to keep being himself. “Oh God, when will this end?” and “Jesus Christ, not again!” are technically prayers. ---

Maybe when he gets confused in his speeches, he’s really just speaking in tongues. I think he should employ that as an excuse and go all in. ---

This may have been reported in another thread, but Mike Lindell’s (My Pillow) company in Minnesota has been evicted from their building for owing $200,000 in back rent. Ya know, Mike, there’s an old saying about not sticking your dick in the crazy. Did you really think there would be no backlash? You know, like nobody buying your crappy products? ---

Didn’t he say it was a group decision, but as the boss he accepted responsibility for it? I think that’s what he said and I’d like to know who the other people in the group are, but I reckon I’ll die of curiosity on that.
