I wish I could un-see that photo . . .

Maybe trump will do the world a favor and expire on his gold-plated crapper at Mar-a-Lardo like Elvis did at Graceland. But at least Elvis left behind a bunch of songs that made the music scene of the 50s and 60s possible, while trump just generated a crapload of kitschy tasteless garbage. No one will really miss him once he’s gone…just like Rush Limpbaugh and Tailgunner Joe McCarthy…wastes of oxygen all.

Gotta share this, wish a few people weren’t dead so I could say I told you so. Anyway fat Elvis is the perfect analogy, accept that that Elvis made me sad, this iteration makes me jump for joy.

<sigh> Yep, Elvis made me sad at the end, too. </sigh>

Almost a Shakespearean tragedy

Where'd you come up with that cartoon of fat daddy would be Elvis? I love it. I sincerely hope that some one of his lamebrains shows the post to trump - he might become so enraged he forgets to breathe.

At another substack. I think it's going viral.

It should! I hope the trumpster/dumpster is shown it.

Think Jr. is slipping him some "adderall" during the visit? Asking for a friend.

My favorite comment on the Donald comes from one of his own senior advisors:

"He lacks any shred of human decency, humility or caring. He is morally bankrupt, breathtakingly dishonest, lethally incompetent and stunningly ignorant of virtually anything involving governing, history, geography, human events or world affairs. He is a traitor and a malignancy in our nation and represents a clear and present danger to our democracy and the rule of law."

Interestingly, during these two weeks of the Olympics featuring exemplary, disciplined, young, stellar human beings (winners), it sets a stark contrast for Don-OLD that may be more subliminal than obvious to most Americans.

Oh, it’s obvious alright!

Even to the MAGA-ites, do you think?

Let’s hope so. It would be good for them to be inspired by excellence.

All my MAGAts are all wrapped up in the women’s Algerian boxer. That's all they’re talking about.

**Edit to get the correct country of the boxer, thanks to TC.

Algerian boxer. And the French boxer has recanted and apologized last Friday.

Thank you. Hitting the "edit" button now!! I saw that apology as well, TC.

That's expected MAGAT behavior.

Some of them!!!

Schadenfreude is much better experienced once the goal has been reached. We're doing well, but the mortal enemy of Democratic election victory has always been Hubris. Our Nemesis this time is too dangerous, even damaged and cornered, to turn our backs on before the 6th of November. And maybe not even then. Gregor Clegane was dead too, until he wasn't and Oberyn Martell learned to his dismay not to dance too soon.

I enjoyed a roaring laugh at that photo! As did my husband.

This is the kind of mockery he hates and fears the most! People laughing at him!

Absolutely. He's even said so, in strong terms.

Perfect analogy! I’ve never seen Melania actually look happy before. But she sure is in the photo waving bye bye to the locked up felon.

And another Black woman is

stepping up and adding more

angst to Donnie's load. Judge

Chutkan back on the job and

ready with her sharpie. The

11th Circuit handed it back to

her the day they got it from

SCOTUS and BAM! She's just

been waiting. Meow.

Damn! I usually don’t have time during the day to read these, and wind up doing it right before bed. Then I can’t unsee or unhear the day’s nuttiness. But that photo of DonOld/Fat Elvis is now seared into my brain! Only ice cream will fix this.

That final picture.... perfection!
