If it was proven beyond a doubt that Trump was selling pardons, most of the Republican senators would immediately steal money and buy a blanket pardon. Win-win. They can’t be convicted of the various crimes they’ve committed, including stealing the money to pay for the pardon.

[CNN reported today](https://www.cnn.com/2026/01/02/politics/white-house-ballroom-marble-trump) that the President went shopping for marble and onyx today for the new ballroom. The article makes it clear that Trump was looking to spend his own money on this but it’s amazing to me that being the Leader of the Free World leaves so much free time for interior decorating decisions.

> Before his visit to Trump International Golf Club, the president made a detour to Arc Stone & Tile, a stone importer near Mar-a-Lago that bills itself as an Italian marble specialist, where he planned to buy marble and onyx, according to a White House official.

In other [news](https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/12/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-adjusts-imports-of-timber-lumber-and-their-derivative-products-into-the-united-states/),

> Today, President Donald J. Trump signed a Proclamation invoking Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (Act) to delay increases in tariffs for upholstered furniture, kitchen cabinets, and vanities for another year.

Surely it’s a coincidence that he will need to be shopping for upholstered furniture for his new ballroom?

Which means that it is highly likely that he will put in some sort of financial claim if his career as Prez comes to an end.

Reminds me of how the Hardchargins (Harkonnens) spend so much time picking out swatches for the wall treatments for the palace at Arruckus (Arrakis) in Ellis Weiner’s _Dune_ parody **Doon.**

Trump would be a good Baron (Hardchargin _or_ Harkonnen) if you just stuck him in an anti-gravity belt.

It’s no big medical secret that older folk should take a low dosage aspirin (81mg) each day to help avert a stroke. Well, the IOTUS told the WSJ that he takes 325mg/day because “I don’t want thick blood pouring through my heart. I want nice thin blood pouring through my heart; does that make sense?” No, Donald, it doesn’t make sense, much like every other idiotic thing you say. Sadly, it likely won’t kill you, but perhaps it will hasten things.

Also cabinets for the catering areas and vanities for 10-20 bathrooms. And since it won’t be done in a year, if ever, the tariffs on those things won’t come back. Just because it benefits him.

But 325mg is your standard headache dosage. Although he’s taking it daily it’s not exactly megadosing on the stuff. (Darn)

This, of course, has been offered as an “explanation” of the bruising on the back of his hand.

How it explains the large ‘Band-aids’ he frequently wears on the hand is quite the mystery. 325mg/day of aspirin, what, opens holes in your skin???
