I just heard a loud “pop”. It’s not dark outside yet, so it must be Steve Cohens head exploding. After dark it’s usually small arms fire in Memphis.

Memphis. Ack! Elvis would sht a chicken if he saw what has become of Elvis Presley Boulevard. No joke, I saw a gas station with the garbage cans chained to the fuel pumps to keep from being stolen.

Was going to say. $25 mil is nice and all, but Trump already got an even bigger concession: surrender and fealty from the Zuckerborg.

As well it should be.

That’s the first I’ve heard about Trump getting a presidential library. I am pleased; he will have a LOT of accomplishments to memorialize.
