The Choices According to Donald Trump

In a two-punch whammy this week, Donald Trump brought back the death penalty and then, by packing the Supreme Court with conservative judges, got approval to use billions of dollars awarded to the military for his useless border wall, even though Congress had refused to authorize the expenditure.

Donald Trump's message to the American people: "You can eat dirt, or you can eat sh!t."

This should be the final nail in Trump's political coffin, but the Democrats seem in disarray. Until some of the 20 or so Democrats who think they should be President realize they are too old, or don't have a chance or are in it only to bring attention to one or two of their pet issues, it will likely be another lost opportunity.

(Hat tip on the quote to Teresa Mendoza in the antepenultimate epidsode of the fictional La Reina del Sur 2, referring to a most corrupt DEA agent who will kill anyone who gets in the way of the DEA's plan to choose the next President of Mexico. The Finale is Monday night.)

    It's going to be like those theatrical serials from the 50s.  There will be new installments every week. A week ago it was the Squad.     Each week more headline grabbing than the last.

    I actually think it's going to get tiresome pretty quickly.

    Marginally sane republicans do not like this.

    We are entering "the end times".

    And about f'ing time.

    FWIW, I love Baltimore. (5.00 / 3) (#9)

    For all it's problems, it has a great city life. Great food to be found in Baltimore. I love the public markets, Lexington, Broadway, Cross Street. I root for the Ravens every year. It has interesting neighborhoods. And history. And I live only 50 miles away.

    Don't like picking. Though my wife and step daughter will sit and pick a half bushel in an afternoon. They are Dundalk women.

    I like G&M near BWI. Best crab cake in Baltimore.

    Picking is hard work. (5.00 / 1) (#35)

    I usually end up giving most of my meat to my sister who doesn't like getting down and dirty.

    G&M does make a good cake (and right down the street from my cousin) but nothing compares to the ones my Mom makes!
