> [@Roderick\_Femm](#): > > I don’t think it would be all that apocalyptic. Don’t forget, this would be after another six months of constantly rekindled rage as the ketchup-stained walls close in on him. Since I don’t see him managing his temper or channeling it into a sustained steady state of simmering anger like Bruce Banner in _The Avengers_, he’s going to have a much worse hair-trigger temper by then… > [@Roderick\_Femm](#): > > until the day he dies, which I hope will consist of him choking on a hamberder, in front of thousands of witnesses and high-resolution cameras Personally, I’d rather he actually _did_ live to 200 like Doctor Feelgood said, so long as he spends his life behind bars where he belongs. ---

It’s not enough just to vote - you should be an _informed_ voter. ---

I’m predicting that the moment Trump is convicted of a felony, all of his current Secret Service detail will be reassigned, and replaced by agents that have never been in contact with Trump. ---

I think there is a non-zero chance that Trump gets it, along the lines of Hitler. He’s certainly been in the news a lot, his SCOTUS is wreaking havoc, and he is the first US President to be indicted for a felony and found liable for sexual assault in a civil case. Of course, if he does the MAGAts will point to it as proof of his greatness and avoid reading the article that explains why he was selected. ---

To be fair, it would not be the first time a fake tanned model appeared on a centerfold. It is just that they tend to be younger, sexier… and a lot more feminine. ---
