It’s a really good article. As an animal lover, I enjoyed it. From a purely pragmatic point of view, the Trumps should get a couple of cats. For the next election, keep in mind, there are more cat owners than dog owners in America. 😻😻😻

Agree that Trump should get a pet. I would love to see a “nice” Honey Badger romping in the halls of the White Hut.

Very appropriate and the Honey Badger wouldn’t give a sh!t.

I never have understood the ‘pardoning’ of the turkey.

If the President and family don’t want to eat it, give to one of the S.S. families or something.

waste not; want not.

Report on where Obamas dog is and what it is doing ?

I seem to remember that the dog was hit by a car shortly after they moved to New York.

Probably another victim of Arkanside.

The dog was going to talk.

An aquarium for the housekeeping staff to tend. Guppies and goldfish or something.

What about a super-hypoallergenic dog named Bo?

Exactly

He had outlived his usefulness.

Finding him a new home would be politically damaging because it would expose the ruse.

It would be fun to see Trump doing the turkey thing...I hope he doesn’t pass on that.

a Live Presidential Turkey Shoot (i would recommend a 4-Ga with #5 shot (steel of course))

or would that offend far too many animal rights types?
