There’s a potential for a whole thread topic, on “what constitutional/legislative reforms need to come out of the Trump disaster?”. On the list, i would put this: if it takes Senate approval to enter into a treaty, it should take Senate approval to get out. A president shouldn’t have the unilateral power to walk away from an international agreement.

Got a letter yesterday from the IRS, which of course I opened because, you know, fucking IRS, right? And what do I find? A letter telling me how lucky I am because Donald Trump sent me a relief check, and it was signed by him in his cardiac arrest scrawl. And in Spanish on the back side.

Can someone attempt to do the math for this? Whaddya think: perhaps 50,000,000 envelopes, plus the sheets of paper, plus the postage rate, plus labor? What sort of cost to the taxpayers are we looking at here so that the gibbering fool can make a campaign speech disguised as “information”?

To be fair, it’s the most helpful thing he could do in this crisis.

I got the letter. I tore it up in pieces and when I walk my dog, I stick a piece in the baggie with her poop. That makes me happy.

You have to hand it to him\* … he’s staying consistently on brand. Not wearing a mask: everything is normal. Golfing: everything is normal. And if everything is normal, then he can hold rallies again and the magical Dow will go up and he will be reelected and stay out of jail.

\*No, actually, you don’t.

Now just a damn minute. I’m golfing today too.:eek: Of course, I’m not the absolute ruler of a despotic country in the midst of a health and economic crisis that needs responsible leadership. And our state, [del]Kenya[/del] Hawaii, shut down properly to contain the disease and is opening slowly in measured degrees instead of ass-kissing the maskless moron by throwing the doors open.

In the “Illustrate How Pathetically Sad Trump Is” department, consider this: Trump refuses to wear the mask because he is afraid of how it will look. Donnie, here’s what you look like already: An unnaturally orange skinned fat guy with the combover from Hell. You already look like a fucking clown.

He’s worried his makeup will get smeared.

Probably better for everyone that he stays out of the White House. Are there any sailing trips scheduled on a boat call the Minnow?

The only way Trump could tolerate sitting through an entire one-hour church service, is the only way he can tolerate his briefings: if his name is mentioned every two minutes or so.

So the sermon would have to be pretty…unusual.

Our PM Scott Morrison took off on a holiday to Hawaii at the height of the devastating bushfires that ravaged Australia late last year.

I can believe it.

WITHOUT COMPENSATION??? That is toooo much.

I demand satisfaction:mad:. Six paces [gotta keep that separation], tomorrow at noon, creme pies. Wear gloves and mask too just in case.😃

Steal away - that’s what I did.
