Saw the ugly video of Trump, made by his fans. But really? Nobody believes Trump could take down a church full of people when we’ve all seen him physically & mentally defeated by a single umbrella.

Donald Trump lost his appeal & must turn over his tax records. But, he can always look back fondly on the moment where he apparently had any appeal.

When Trump started wearing that “45” hat, I didn’t realize it was to let us know how many sexual assault allegations will eventually be made about him. https://t.co/vgTlJbM8NC

Trump says he might put tariffs on French wine in retaliation for France’s taxes on American tech companies. Though, notice he’s not threatening to tax French fries.

The Dow plunged yesterday, big time. Wow, I guess #Trump really is running this country exactly the way he ran his businesses!

Trump tweeted about his "great and unmatched wisdom" yesterday prompting comparisons to The Wizard of Oz. But I don't think that's true because the Wizard had everyone fooled for about an hour and forty-five minutes.

23 states are suing Trump to keep California's emission rules! To paraphrase Andy Warhol, "In the future, everyone in the world will sue Donald Trump at least once."

Trump says the US is moving to ban flavored e-cigarettes. Because they've killed 6 people. So, I guess the next step is we will have to make guns in fun flavors & see if they'll do anything about them then?

Today, a mouse fell onto a member of the press from the White House ceiling. Or as Trump will certainly call it, “Almost a spy!”

#Trump shared a meme promising he wouldn't put a gold Trump Tower in #Greenland. But I think we're all smart enough not to trust anything he says about any of his ugly erections.

The National Enquirer shredded Trump related documents prior to his election. Now nobody can read them, whereas before it was mostly Trump who couldn’t read them.

Bette even came up with this “what if” scenario.
Today, while trying to deny he wanted a moat at the border, Trump called it a “moot.” If, instead of all the campaigning & debates, we’d simply had a 2nd grade spelling test, we might not be where we are now.

Now, does anyone know where we can find a time machine?
