Dear President Trump, How about you! You notched a big #Win (or “#Winning” as your sycophantic VP enthusiastically proclaimed) by coercing the NFL owners to agree that teams will incur hefty fines if players protest on the sideline. I know you aren’t fully satisfied with the rules since players can remain in the locker room … Continue reading Gladiators probably couldn’t protest either
Complicity
Brainwashed and benumbed + guns = death
Dear President Trump, Are you following Oliver North’s statements about school shootings being a product of “our culture of violence” and we shouldn’t blame guns? Do you see any problems with that logic? Like maybe that the ubiquity of guns, our overly literal interpretation of the Second Amendment, and our unwillingness to value life over … Continue reading Brainwashed and benumbed + guns = death
Is Ryan growing a spine?
Dear President Trump, I think I see what Ryan is doing. Do you see it? Are you feeling nervous? I don’t have a crystal ball but we should know in the next day or two if I’m correct in thinking he’s announcing today that he’s not seeking re-election so he can go ahead and do … Continue reading Is Ryan growing a spine?
Who knew we’d all become quasi-legal experts
Dear President Trump, I’m not sure I’d even want to be a fly on the wall in the Oval Office today since I doubt I’d make it out alive. Maybe if I held really still and hid somewhere, like in the drapes, I could listen in on your unraveling without being swatted at. That might … Continue reading Who knew we’d all become quasi-legal experts
Our souls suffer when we are myopic
Dear President Trump, If the lack of censure from Fox News and the rest of their ilk in the aftermath of Todd Brassner’s death is an indication, apparently you could shoot someone in broad daylight on 5th Avenue and get away with it. A Twitter person pointed out yesterday that if Hillary had failed to … Continue reading Our souls suffer when we are myopic
Jesus wasn’t about walls
Dear President Trump, It’s felt like April Fool’s Day for 435 days so it’s hard to imagine how much worse things will get now that virtually all the semi-rational people in your administration have resigned or were fired by Tweet. The only possible silver lining is that your Foxy Friends will egg you on to … Continue reading Jesus wasn’t about walls
Bozo of a president
Dear President Trump, You’ve had a hell of a week! Was screwing with the country today about whether you’d sign the budget bill the cherry on top? I bet it was actually tough signing that thing with such a pittance for your precious wall (though that billion-dollar-plus pittance would sure build a lot of low … Continue reading Bozo of a president
Donny on the spot for despots
Dear President Trump, I think we should all chip in and get you a cowboy hat, chaps, a set of spurs, and a pack of Marlboros so you can live out your fantasy presidency calling all your own shots in the guise of the Marlboro Man. It’s a tough look and the MM is the … Continue reading Donny on the spot for despots
