We’re not doing much today—pizza and a movie. But I bought a smoked turkey breast and there’s champagne in the fridge. Whenever that man is gone I am ready to leap into action for the best damn Thanksgiving ever!

observe every year.

Some people say there are millions of others who share my plans. Many people say the characteristic food of the day will be some kind of flaming orange liqueur.

I'm serious. I hear this all the time.

Another holiday will be the day he goes to jail.

"believe me" the sure sign he is lying. There will be "Dancing in the Streets" on the day he goes, however way that is. Many people have said so, believe me.

Perhaps we can start a "Goose Cooked" celebration on the anniversary of 45's inevitable 86.

Fiddler on the Roof: The czar will die on a holiday.

How do you know he will die on a holiday?

Whatever day he dies will be a holiday.

I think there ought to be coast-to-coast rejoicing. Followed by permanent shunning of trump supporters.

House members every year, POTUS every four, Senate every six.

My family would consider it a "draining the swamp for real" yearly holiday.

That there will come a day where Thanksgiving will be on a Sunday in November, much like Easter. The greedy CEOs will get tired of paying people 2 days (Thanksgiving and the day after) for not working and lobby for the move.

Historically it was a movable feast celebrated when it was felt appropriate.

And we can hope it’ll still be celebrated for four hundred years later.
