A Dump
A Sports Illustrated senior staff writer, Alan Shipnuck, wrote that Donald Trump told people that the “White House is a dump.”
Trump, of course, denies saying it as he denies saying anything, ever, in his whole life, which is the best life ever.
Shipnuck responds …
My money is bet on the fact that he said it. One reason why? This is a house he owns that he just put on the market.
Look, I have often said that my favorite color is shiny, but it’s a joke. A joke that Donald Trump doesn’t “get.”
If the White House is a dump, this is why.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
As my sainted mother used to say, “His taste is in his mouth.”
1Bet Kim Jong Trump was soooo disappointed that he didn’t have a throne room. And a throne. A gold one.
2There’s a balcony overlooking the bed? What for? Spectators? Making a swan dive to your lover? Tasteless… maybe. Stupid… definitely.
I’m an old. I grew up when the wealthy had an image of taste and refinement. I always thought that if you are wealthy but don’t have taste and refinement, you should at the least be smart enough to know where to buy it.
3I didn’t know I was related to TexasTrailerParkTrash but we must be because my mother used to say the same thing. Of course, we have had reports of what Pres. Trump likes to eat which implies that the taste in his mouth is no better.
4JAKvirginia, maybe that’s the musicians’ gallery.
We’re thinking of making a local move, and Zillow.com sends us house listings. Several times lately they’ve burped and sent along a place listed for $10-15 million in the next county. Last one was in Virginia, and oh lord I have less money than those people but I have so much more class and taste. Their decorator must have been on shrooms. But it’s still not as tacky and garish and flat-out WTF as any of Donnie’s places. It’s like somebody gave a 3-year-old a can of gold spray paint.
5The White House isn’t a dump.
It is, however, suffering an extremely noxious infestation. Time to tent the place and pump in the pesticide.
The sealed tent concentrates the poisonous gases and prevents them from escaping into the neighborhood. The process can take up to a week depending on the fumigant used, which is in turn dependent on the temperature and the pest.
6My little bride took one look at the balcony, said “balconies are for spectators”, threw up a bit in her mouth and left the room. The prosecution rests.
7Tha balcony? That’s where the slave stands and whispers “This too shall pass.”
As for calling the People’s House a dump – and he certainly did – I don’t think anyone is surprised at his “judgement”. He doesn’t have any. But he does have options. He is more than welcome to take this worthless self any place else in the world, the sooner, the better.
