Now trending on Twitter: #RevolutionaryWarAirportStories is now trending.  It’s worth a visit.

Oh, and yours truly is playing.  My first tweet is here:

During Trump’s 45 minute teleprompter drone this afternoon in front of the rain soaked Lincoln Memorial, he clearly stumbled while reading the narration of the Revolutionary War.  Quote:

“In June of 1775 the Continental Congress created a unified Army out of the Revolutionary Forces encamped around Boston and New York, and named after the great George Washington, commander-in-chief. The Continental Army suffered a bitter winter of Valley Forge, found glory across the waters of the Delaware and seized victory from Cornwallis of Yorktown.”

Then Trump had a brain fart:

“Our Army manned the air, it rammed (?) the ramparts, it took over airports, it did everything it had to do. And at Fort McHenry, under the rockets’ red glare, had nothing but victory. When dawn came, the star-spangled banner waved defiant.”

The US Army took over the airports?  During the war for independence or in 1812?  Two hundred years before there were airports?  Just another example of Trump’s mindless recitation of lines written by someone else.  If he loses track, he just substitutes phonetics, much like Beatles cover bands in Bangkok.  If it’s close, it’s good enough for this guy.  Clearly, Trump spent more time on watching Fox News for instructions than rehearsing his speech for his “lifetime experience”.

Jesus.

For those of you who are the praying kind, those prayers are being answered.  It’s pouring rain in Washington, DC, and there are special weather warnings for heavy rain and lightning until 9 pm.  It might be a happy 4th of July after all.  Happy #4thofyoulie !

I have a damn near perfect four year old grandson who attended his first rally. His parents didn’t think he was paying attention or aware of what was happening.  A week later, he told his mommy something as they were driving to school.

“We saw a car like that at the Angry Party! Remember? There were a lot of people and they had signs. The other people won’t let the babies be with their mommies. They want to make the babies stay in that building. It’s a bad building. We have to shut it down.”
