They have both the flip and flop. It is amazing to me that everybody in America has a short term memory problem. Trump can contradict himself in the same speech and they don’t notice.
It is reported that Trump spent $107 million dollars on his poorly attended inauguration. Among the other outrageous expenses, $130 thousand of that went for Tiffany Salad Bowls given to one million dollar donors.
There’s one on Ebay from the Bush inaugural asking $200 and nobody seems interested. It’s a salad bowl. You eat salad from it. You do not make salad in it. It’s too little.
They sell at Tiffany’s for $135. Spend another $20 for the Presidential seal to be stamped on it and Voila! the cheapest piece of crap you ever spent $1 million for.
Okay, so then you have to wonder how many people gave $1 million. Let’s say 50 people, which is probably triple those who did but we’re being generous here. And then let’s pretend that everybody at their table of 8 for dinner with Trump got one. That’s $1,200. The grand total comes to $60,000. Somebody somewhere got paid a helluva commission. In fact, it’s more commission than bowls.
Now, I know I picked on one little thing. But if they will skim off the little crap, how much more are they skimming off the big crap?
I dunno about you, but when I donate a million bucks, I expect a whole place setting.
Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen who gave me whole Dairy Queen place setting with the purchase of a Hunger Buster.
Know-nothing conservatives have brought their ignorant, hateful, anti-science, anti-common sense, and racist rotten core to the center of American politics, culminating in the shocking election of the worst president in US history, Donald Trump in 2016. To cling to power, they have sold out their fellow Americans and aided enemies like Russia and North Korea to do his bidding. They’ve amplified Trump’s lies and horrible, hateful rhetoric, and Christians who support him oddly cite the religion they’ve betrayed to justify their corruption.
If anything good comes from this long national nightmare, it’s that good, patriot Americans who hold actual American values are stepping up. 2018 was a great example, with Dems retaking the House and hundreds of women taking leadership roles all over the country. Normal people are saying that enough is enough, and today, another normal person, who is also a hero, has done the same. Astronaut Mark Kelly has announced his run for the US Senate from Arizona. This is a person of high integrity, honesty, and bravery who stepped into the breach after his wife, Gabby Giffords, had her political career cut short by senseless, easily preventable gun violence. Here’s a guy we can get behind.

My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
