Looks like the procedure worked. But what a roundabout way to reach the frontal lobe. ---

I imagine someone is making thousands of Trump branded “bandages” today for people to wear during his speech tonight. You can never let a good branding opportunity go to waste. ---

Remember just a few months ago when the big news story was how bad Trump smells and people, many people, big strong men with tears in their eyes, were saying it’s because he shits his adult diaper? And then the Trump supporters started wearing adult diapers _on the outside of their clothes_ to show support and solidarity? Yeah, these people are fucking nuts. ---

I turned on the TV news thinking that Trump’s speech would be over and instead got to witness Kid Rock’s act. Watching old white people (and slimy politicians) try to jam to his rap was absolutely hilarious. If you want a good laugh, check it out.
