I’ve told Hubster a few times that it wouldn’t surprise me if he had his name put above JFK’s on JFK’s headstone. ---

Okay, that’s more likely; he is a narcissist and can’t imagine that others are not the same. Someone mentioned his amazement that George Washington didn’t name his estate and other things after himself. I’ll bet that he thinks it was Washington’s idea to name the capital after himself. ---

> [@smithsb](#): > > back in 2011. C’mon. Give the old guy a break. 2011 was way more than two weeks ago! The only thing Trump knows about the past is a vague sense that certain people (Obama, Rosie O’Donnell, Graydon Carter of Vanity Fair, etc) are on his “shitlist” for reasons his jumbled brain cannot recall. That lack of actual memory of the slight, real or imagined, is less important than his fragile ego… ---

Sold out the first run of 150M copies? There are a _lot_ of MAGA families who need to properly indoctrinate their chilluns 😉 More seriously … For folks who lived through WW-II, owning a copy of _Mein Kampf_ wasn’t that outré. Not because they were sympathizers, but because they wanted the horse’s mouth version of why this disaster occurred. Shirer’s _Rise and Fall of the Third Reich_ published in 1960 was also a common bookshelf tome for well-read folks back then. None of which is relevant to trump’s non-reading habits. But goes a bit to my disdain of the current hysteria that anyone who knows or researches anything about Nazis _must_ be a sympathizer, closeted or not. Now trump’s a fascist through and through and back when he could think sorta coherently he probably admired a lot of Nazi philosophy and especially phraseology. Good propaganda doesn’t die; it just gets re-applied to the next similar situation. ---
