He’s good at refusing.
Just before he was born, he valiantly refused an offer of brains.

Wow, Slick sure has that bulbous nose thing happening. Is that a cocaine nose or a booze nose? He always reminded me of W.C. Fields.

I have yet to hear our “media” mention the fact that President Trump has been donating his salary since he took office.

“Vote for me, I’ll outlaw large sodas”

How great that Democrats have a rich billionaire older white male to man-splain to all the liberal women why they’re not good enough to be president?

Notice that no one on the Left is screaming about billionaires buying offices now. No talk about white privilege, how it’s unfair Bloomberg is a billionaire while candidates of color like Harris and Booker have to raise money, etc.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Just as well as they will just claim he is ‘grandstanding’ and making for more with ‘titled people’ staying at his hotels for the impact.

Then they will quickly remind you that even though they are ‘beating each other up’ over getting bookings etc they all HATE HIM.

Must be hard to operate when one has their head firmly implanted in ones ‘Schiff Schute’

Milwaukee will be a brokered convention with the players having a Dutch auction in a marijuana smoke-filled room. The only players will be billionaires.

Little people are only needed to provide warm bodies for riot videos stretching from Milwaukee to Gary, Indiana.
