Sadly, I can definitely see Trump actually doing something like this--refusing to pardon the turkeys because doing so is weak and somehow anti-American.

And as for the idea of Malignia cooking turkey or anything else, well, I think she could fuck up a package of Ramen noodles if you spotted her the boiling water and only 30 seconds left on the timer.

The only unrealistic thing about this is that he would call them “Democrat Turkeys” not “Democratic.” It’s a linguistic tic even Trump never forgets to do. Sigh.

(Cut for space)

Trump: ...and Sammy Spear and the oar-kestra. A little travelin' music, Sam! (Trump starts to waddle off, flapping his arms. One of the gumps gently takes him by the elbow and steers him back.) Great man. Great *entertainer.* You don't have that any more. But we're bringing it back. We're gonna bring it back.

Well, he did say to the press yesterday that he would sic poor Conan the Wonder Dog on them unless they behaved well towards him. No impulse control at all anymore. Also, pretty realistic about his tendency to just gabble about whatever happens to obsess him at any moment.

I never cared for Jackie Gleason, too loud, and mean to Jayne Meadows (Mrs. Cramden). Probably a perfect choice for a Trump hero. However, I loved Art Carney. I used to wear a white t-shirt, one of my dad's vests and an old fedora in homage to him. (I was maybe 6 or 7 at the time. I understand now that might be in style among millennials.) This time of year I reminisce about his ode to Christmas greed, "All I Want for Christmas is a Doodlyboop," my first personal 78 rpm record. I still have it somewhere (we are a hoarding kind of family). If someone can show me it's worth a lot of money, I'll head for the attic to find it.

Apropos the poor turkeys:

BTW: I'm still confused, bewildered, perplexed by Conan's gender and its impact on and relationship to Pentagon policies.

Does Drumpf get to speak at the impeachment hearing? Will his gumps attend? Can the free press also attend and will you be there Roy?
