“What, he’s too busy to place an order at Amazon?”
All ‘Rats and most Republicans would give him hell over his previous comments about Amazon.
Oh, wait, they already do about everything.
Still no sense in handing ammunition to one’s biggest enemies.
I give him credit for a non-BS answer to a question that is easily fudged in answering if one is so inclined.
Tomorrow (Friday) is my daughter’s teacher’s birthday.
Which also happens to be my birthday.
My wife asked me what I wanted.
I told her a birthday cake.
She said and?
I told her two birthday cakes.
I been on a diet.
Yes, Car Wash gifts!
My wife laughingly once cautioned me not to buy her Christmas gifts at Harbor Freight. We still laugh about it.
No gift for the First Lady? Impeach now!!!
Billionaires don’t do that. Their wives don’t need someone to buy them things.
Seriously, Melania is pretty much bathed in gifts. Good for her, and I’m sure she’s not a woman who would whine and pout about not getting a gift for her birthday. She has everything she could possibly want, and left needs sitting in the dust years ago.
He will probably make up for this on Mother’s Day.
Melania will always be Barron’s Mother. They are very close. Barron is fluent in Slovenian, Melania’s native language.
I have a feeling she’s not worried.
“Hey honey, for your birthday, whadda ya say we have dinner at the White House?”
I volunteer to give the beautiful Melania an Ivanka outfit. Price is no object, well almost...
My birthday was yesterday. Not even a card.
Never been married, have you? Wives and annual gifting are the foundation of, “What have you done for me lately?” Your forgetfulness goes into the “drag it out when I need it bin,” to return at tantrum time.
Your bet would be wrong. He brought up her birthday.
Birthday presents are silly. A friend of mine got me started on a lovely tradition. Send one’s mother a bouquet of roses equaling one’s age.
Wife just closed my man cave door and said surprise delivery.
That could be the cake guy.
Hubby and I stopped getting each other gifts once our kids arrived....married 11 years before son arrived.. so we had fun for 11 years...
Gifts are nothing but material items...and as we age we just have to get rid of them...so save money and verbally tell each other....HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOVE YOU...
now move on...
My daughter just opened the door and said yum yum.
My father was wise....Every year he would buy some tulip bulbs and raise them in the house just in time for mom’s birthday. They never exchanged cards. It just wasn’t something everyone did back then.
Cards with calligraphy poems. Godsends.
As for Harbor Freight — what is not to like? Heck, you can get her a jack that will lift a Sherman Tank for like $29.99!!
He’s right, he is busy. Maybe it slipped up on him.
Maybe they both feel his gift to her is no one’s business and would like a break from the ever-present public scrutiny.
And maybe, at this point, she requires not much more than a thoughtful, beautiful card.”
