An oldie to keep in reserve if Donnie is impeached or removed from office:

(Name here) F**k you!
Who the Hell elected you?


At the time I thought that the chanters were being unfair to Gerald Ford, but today I'd feel no shame joining get in and slinging it at the Replacement Trumpkin.

I will never forget the amicus brief he wrote in favor of his alma mater, the University Of Michigan's, affirmative action program.

Whatever else you can say about Gerald R. Ford, he looked and acted presidential, a leader you could follow, whether you agreed with him or not.

ClubPachyderm hasn't produced such a leader coming anywhere close to Gerald Ford since 1996, and close is relative. This year's crop of R's were moral and intellectual pygmies (And that's an insult to real Pygmies).

crooks will do something of merit in their lifetime... I will never forgive Ford for pardoning a proven crook - president of not (being president was all the more reason to prosecute the fucking warmonger), it set the precedent under which we now suffer thing dubious end of our democratic form of government.

The John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award®





Background
President Gerald Ford was honored for his courage in making a controversial decision of conscience to pardon former President Richard M. Nixon. On September 8, 1974, President Ford granted a “full, free and absolute pardon” to former President Nixon “for all offenses against the United States which he...has committed or may have committed or taken part in” while he was president. Nixon accepted the pardon. The response from the press, Congress and the general public was overwhelmingly negative. Appearing before the U.S. House Committee on the Judiciary, President Ford explained under oath, in the first sworn congressional testimony ever given by a sitting president, that there were no deals connected with the pardon. Ford wrote in his autobiography that Nixon's pardon “wasn't motivated primarily by sympathy for his plight or by concern over the state of his health. It was the state of the country’s health at home and around the world that worried me.” In 1976, President Ford lost the White House to Jimmy Carter in one of the closest elections in American history. Many historians believe Ford’s pardon of Nixon contributed to his defeat.

his beauty nap before the afternoon video release. Then it's dinner with everyone he shouldn't be in contact with followed by the evening rant in the twttersphere... rinse and repeat. And those who participate in social media can keep it up so he has a melt-down so yuge that not only does his head explode but so will the heads of his closest thirty-thieves.

I didn't want to say anything about powder-breaks and safety meetings but, that's the more likely activity.

A person would think that as long as Trump's been wearing the stuff he'd know it's supposed to go around your eyes too.
