Plus, they hated Hillary just like all the "I'll vote for a woman, but not THAT woman" types hate Elizabeth Warren right now.

The problem is that the GOP has spent forty years arguing that “good government” is an oxymoron.

Ooh, "Trump - The Game"

Maybe I already mentioned that somewhere, but here goes:

The mechanics of this game are... interesting. The objective is to hoard money. You can acquire/steal money from other players, or their money box. So far, nothing special.When it becomes special: it's about the only mechanic by which you can lose money yourself.That's very limited, for a game of resource gathering.

What I found most funny? There is a Trump card (yes, of course they are called Trump cards) called 'tax card'. No, it's not about you - or anyone - paying taxes to the bank.It's about another player paying his taxes to you..

Obviously Satan has been in charge of America for quite some time. How else do you explain such a vile creature continually never paying any price for his vileness? Shit he can't even get coronavirus.

I tried grapefruit a couple of times. Each time, I took one bite and threw up. I don't try grapefruit anymore.

Maybe I already mentioned this, also, too.

Waaay back when I was a kid, I played a game of Monopoly with my brother, my best friend and his brother.

Very early-on, it became obvious that, through the luck of the dice, my brother was going to crush us. He owned almost all of the real estate, from lowly Mediterranean Avenue to hoity-toity Park Place and Boardwalk, and was well into the hotel business, and owned both railroads, and the utilities, whereas we kept getting thrown in jail and couldn't get past Go.

So, when he was out of the room, we cooked up a scheme in which the banker would slip all of his ill-gotten gain to us, share and share alike.

The bro could not figure out why the game kept going on and on and on until we finally fessed up. He was pretty boiled for about ten minutes and then it became a family joke.

Now I realize that we invented Trump - The Game, all those years ago!

(Well except for that share-and-share alike part. In a real game of Trump - The Game we would have furiously cheated each other like a common Stalin.)

I like you but the urge to downvote is nearly irresistible.

It renders the tartness sublime. Especially after being broiled.

For a man who has the best memory, Donald Trump sure seems to have a lot of difficulty remembering stuff.
