Overheard around the White House lately 1. “I’m not sure he’s got the upper-body strength to _lift_ a baseball, let alone throw it.” 2. “If I lose, do I _ **really** _ have to leave?” 3. “Hey, you wanted me to listen to physicians. So I did, and now, I truly believe that human females can be impregnated by demon UFO aliens while the human females are asleep and dreaming. A doctor said so!” 4. “Nobody likes me.” [pouts] 5. “I hear Melania has already offered to show Jill Biden around.” 6. “Person, woman, man, camera, TV. See? I aced it again.” 7. “The Attorney General will be by to shine the President’s shoes at 3:30.” 8. “Yeah, yeah, covid, covid, covid. Is it golf time yet?” 9. “Did I tell you how I passed my mental test real good? … I did? … Ten times? … I don’t remember doing that.” 10. “Why hasn’t Putin called? I can’t do this on my own!” 11. “I can’t wear a mask because my bronzer always stains it, duh.” 12. “Whaddaya mean I can’t postpone the election? Why not?” ---
