Yeah, one of those who was no comment changed their mind so that 25 became 26 later in the day.

Donnie just tweeted out a “RINO” slam at the unknown 26, along with a gratuitous slam at fake news Washington Post for reporting it. He’s a pistol, our president is.

The spirit of the House Unamerican Activities Committee lives on. No surprise, since Trump learned the trade from Roy Cohn.[https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/top-5-hollywood-blacklist-informants-840434](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/top-5-hollywood-blacklist-informants-840434)

I have rewritten some lyrics to Sweet Home Alabama. Since I have recently moved back to my home town in Virginia, it is now Sweet Home in Virginia. And I changed one verse to

In Charlotsville they love the president  
His reign of terror is now up  
Now Donald Trump does not bother me  
we are going to lock him up (lock him up!)

Not sure how Charlottesville voted, maybe it should be Richmond town

At today’s rally allegedly for Loeffler and Perdue, but really for Individual 1:  
“I like cucumbers.”  
They also played YMCA and “Fortunate Son”. Irony is dead.

Unfortunately you are wrong on both counts, Charlottesville was 85% Biden and Richmond 83% Biden. It should be noted that the incident in Charlottesville was not one that the residents supported.

I was thinking Richmond because of the Civil War. But demographics have changed. But, Charlottesvile works in a way, that was the city of the big controversary. OK most people there, as you have noted, did not support Trump. There aren’t that many well knows cities in VA. Maybe I just say, In my hometown they loved the President. But, my hometown voted for BIden, but that was only because of 20k students. But the “real” citizens were probably 80 percent Trump

Is anyone else getting the impression that the chances of the orange shit-gibbon being memorialized on Mt Rushmore are getting to be vanishingly small? It’s too bad, because he went to all the trouble of posing for it, and [then called the governor of South Dakota to demand that his mug be carved into the mountain at once](https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/white-house-trump-mount-rushmore-1041570/). There’s still a chance that somewhere, they may name a sewage treatment plant after him, and maybe even build it in the shape of his grinning mug. Or perhaps a federal prison, honoring his lengthy stay there.

“Nobody ever heard of cucumbers, by the way. You never saw Obama eating cucumbers. You’ll never see Sleepy Joe, he probably doesn’t even know what cucumbers are, but ever since I started talking about cucumbers, a lot of people are finding out about them. Maybe they’ll catch on - we’ll see what happens, we’re going to be making a big announcement about cucumbers in the next two weeks, and I think a lot of people are going to be very impressed by what we’ll be finding out. They’re much better than pickles. Nobody wants pickles, but Nancy and Cryin’ Chuck, if your governor lets them have their way, you’re not going to have hamburgers anymore. Your wife is going to be saying ‘Honey, can we have hamburgers tonight, President Trump is on television’ - and you’re going to have to tell her no, Nancy says we have to have pickles tonight.”

Just visualize CFSG as one of the participants in the scene in that Burroughs novel that involves the use of Steely Dan III.
