> [@Gatopescado](#): > > I’m pretty sure that’s the Dos XX guy on the far right, front row Yeah, he could have snuck in there. After all, it’s supposedly the G7, but there are 14 people in that pic. And the extra 7 aren’t all spouses; Melania isn’t in the pic, for example. ---

Oops - don’t know how I missed \*\*WOOKINPANUB’\*\*s post. UGH in that second G7 pic I thought for a second that was fucking Brian Mulroney to the right of Trump. Donald looks pissed for not being in the very middle of the front row. Or bored / impatient. ---

Obama is getting some decent acts at his library opening today. He started with Bono and the Edge. Currently Marc Anthony is singing. Looks like he also has Stevie Wonder, Springsteen, Common, Christina Aguilera, John Legend and Jennifer Hudson. Now granted it’s not Milli Vanilli and Vanilla Ice but it’s a decent lineup 😉 It looks like Clinton and GW Bush are both there. Meanwhile, huge chunks of paint are peeling off the reflecting pool because Trump’s pool guy is just that good. ---

Maybe they can give away pieces of peeling Reflecting Pool paint as prizes/souvenirs at the Great American State Fair. ---

GIVE away? That’s not gonna happen. But for the low low price of $47.45 you too could own a chip of paint. ---
