It's officially "Talk Like a Mobster Day".

[MelissaB]

The president of the United States tried to shake down the president of another country.

“the United States has been very very good to Ukraine. I wouldn't say that it's reciprocal necessarily because things are happening that are not good but the United States has been very, very good to Ukraine,"

Trump: We do a lot for Ukraine.

Zelenskyy: We are almost ready to buy more Javelins from the United States for defense purposes.

Trump: I would like you to do us a favor though.

1. Did you make this up?

It is brilliant. I want to use it to tool around a few folks on Facebook but will not until I know who to credit, or not if you made it up and do not want credit.

I can blow up a few heads with this, heads that have been trying to tool me around for months.
