Are you eligible for a Darwin award if you have already had kids, but half of them are in jail, and the other half are social pariahs who will never be given a chance for a relationship?

Meme idea:

Remember many years ago, the memes of a USC cheerleader inserted into historic tragedies?

Picture Trump giving a thumbs up in front of the Hindenburg, or the Crucifixion. You get the idea.

Is there a betting pool on how soon that happens? Now that you’ve mentioned it, I can’t believe it won’t.

The only way I’m on board with giving Trump awards for leaving office early is if the awards specifically state that the award is granted for his service to the world by leaving office early. If he agrees to that, I’m (gulp) even on board with a Nobel prize.
