While Donald Trump _claims_ to have written 70 autobiographies (one for each year of his life), it is pretty well known that they were actually literally ghost written by the ghosts of the past 39 US Presidents. And Reagen, who is set to write th next one, is really, really pissed that he is not going to be the oldest person ever to assume the US Presidency. So that one ought to be a goo read. And Trump has promised to donate all the proceeds to charity, after he throws a few parties at the Trump hotels. ---

In the New York club scene, the phrase “Trump Hotel” is actually a euphemism for a very raunchy sex act. So raunchy, in fact, that it is outlawed in 12 states. Suffice it to say, it is almost as dirty as its companion act the “Constitutional Crisis.” ---

Pence Bouncy Houses, sold by an Indianapolis company run by Clem Spence, brother of the Vice President-elect of the United States, are notoriously quick to accidentally deflate (and “smell inside like year-old cottage cheese,” according to a 2012 review by _Kiddy Party Kronicle_ editor Philip “Ayn” Phartuccio). ---

Mike and Clem believe that the Pence Bouncy Houses suffer from the deflation troubles because of a defective male/female connector that is part of the internal mechanism of the air pumps used to inflate the product. They feel that a conversion is necessary to make the pumps work correctly though there doesn’t seem to be any data available to back that up properly. ---

Spence Pence, the CEO of Pence Bouncy Houses, LTD, vigorously denies that there is any such thing as a male/female connection on any of their products. So vigorous, in fact, that he’s developed a rash on his ‘special purpose’. ---
