He _causes_ traumatic brain injury, resulting from people banging their heads against walls and other solid objects.

TBI ain’t no joke. Neither is the Orange Peril.

It’s the same man who wanted to stop corona-testing. No tests = no cases found = no epidemic.

Rump may also have something to do with [The Longshoreman’s Strike](https://www.rawstory.com/ila-port-strike-heads-explode/).

Possibly related, a distant cousin on social media warned all of his contacts who are independent truckers of a huge rash of truck tire slashings late at night at truck stops along east-west highways through many different states. Truck tires are incredibly expensive and attacks like this can put many independents out of business.

> March 4, 2016,
> 
> Nearly 30 years ago, Graydon Carter, the editor of Vanity Fair magazine, described Trump in Spy magazine as a “short-fingered vulgarian.” … “Like so many bullies, Trump has skin of gossamer,” Carter wrote in November. “To this day, I receive the occasional envelope from Trump. There is always a photo of him—generally a tear sheet from a magazine. On all of them he has circled his hand in gold Sharpie in a valiant effort to highlight the length of his fingers,” Carter wrote.

I remember when this came out in 2016. Like so many who never paid much attention to Trump, I largely bought the main-stream media’s distortions about him. They called him “brash” or “bold,” implying that he was basically okay even if some objected to his aggressive persona.

With the news Carter revealed, about Trump sending him photos of his hands, I realized that Trump was actually mentally ill. Genuinely unstable and disordered.

_SNL_ was making fun of Donald Trump back in the 90s, too. [Here’s a cold open](https://youtu.be/G1gC912LUq0?si=hpej0XJs8zfUFY5U) featuring Phil Hartman as Trump and Jan Hooks as Ivana talking about their divorce.

Just as a reminder, Hartman died in 1998, and their divorce was finalized in 1992.

I was definitely aware of who Trump was, in the early 90s, as a young teen. I’ve been sitting here wracking my brain trying to figure how or when I first became aware of him and this filled in a huge blank for me.

I got huge into standup, sketch comedy, and late night shows like Letterman when I was still young. And I’m nearly certain I would have seen this episode at the time. Anyone who was paying attention to pop culture by the late 80s or early 90s had an idea about who Trump was. They might only have known him as a local NY celebrity, and unaware of his full activities and general personality.

In 1992 I would have been 10/11 years old. And I could have identified a picture of Trump, that he lived in NYC, and was famous for real estate development. That would have been the extent though.

10 year old me: “Trump’s that guy with the weird hair they’re always making fun of on SNL and Letterman right?”

I’m a guy, so I don’t know: shouldn’t women be inclined to view Walz more favorably when it’s pointed out that he was somewhat cognizant of women’s needs with his tampon program? Or is he just in the pocket of Big Napkin?

As with so many of his third-grade-level insults, it doesn’t really make sense, and may actually hurt him with some voters. And yet he can’t stop spewing them.

Democrats put free tampons in school restrooms. Republicans put [viewing windows](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/gender-inclusive-bathroom-window-school-pennsylvania-b2623342.html) in school restrooms.

Well, duh. How _else_ are you supposed to know the students are using the tampons for their intended purpose?

Seems unlikely, given the upset over inserting tampons being apparently sexual. The cups aren’t phallic shaped, but surely nothing should be inserted into a woman except her husband.

That’s right! If a tampon went into the wrong hole, that would be like sexual butt stuff [heh].

And, we all know Jesus said in the Bible that is illegal.
