Hell, Manson, I was wondering if it would be against board rules to set up a thread game betting on which politician gets shot first. At least voting in this one won’t get me banned… 😉 I’m going to go with by the end of the year for #1, June 2020 for #2. ---

Before that I’d been vaguely aware of Trump as an unpleasant celebrity in whom I had no interest. But the anecdote about Trump continuing to send photos with circled hands (to the guy who’d coined the “short-fingered vulgarian” description) was a real shock. I realized at that moment that this wasn’t merely a case of Trump being an annoying TV personality----I realized that there was something profoundly wrong with his brain. > [@Try2B\_Comprehensive](#): > > I don’t think it will be forgotten that he pals around with pedophiles. I won’t be that surprised if he is revealed to be one himself. (Also, ewwwww x 1000). … Agreed. ---

I wonder if Trump has ever deigned to visit Slovenia? It’s a very lovely country. Ljubljana is full of buildings/cemeteries/crossroads built by a brilliant early-20th-century architect (look him up). Lake Bled is the equal of any inland sea in Austria, Germany, or the Czech Republic. ---
