Yeah. And should be “current gold digger” for accuracy sake.

We can expect Melania to follow the example of Madam Nhu, or the Mmes. Baby Doc, and decamp to the fashion capitals of Europe with the boodle. Tended to by pool boys she can refer to as “my shirtless ones,” as a homage to Evita Peron.

Yep. This is just what I would predict. She’ll be living the life while Trumpy boy sits in a cell or in the dirt. Nothing much will be heard from her - she’ll be a very rich, very private person.

Yup. But perhaps a failure of our education system. By not teaching how to think critically and not swallow anything shoved in their eyes and ears.

I know some kids who were homeschooled and there are a couple of them that frighten me a little bit.

I’d say it’s more emblematic of the failure of a constitutional democracy or presidential democracy, (especially when electoral voting is part of the system) but, for parliamentary democracies, not so much.

Trump got four holes in one in a single golf game. And he wrote the Star Spangled Banner.

Trump can heal lepers with one touch of his hand; he just chooses not to.

Trump could win any olympics event he chose to enter.

Trump has no cholesterol. Zero.

Trumps medical test results are all positive. The most postive.
