He has a “woman problem” in the words of another adviser.

I don't think people are paying much attention to that anymore. He's like a hardened up old turd that you encounter along a path and just kick aside with your foot.

on the wall that were old propaganda and were mostly exaggerated muscly men doing jobs. They had old time potato dishes. My brother liked it. Trump likes ptetending he is doing muscly men jobs. The exaggerated shoulder to waist ratio would for sure apoeal to the ladies if you put Trump's face on the chatacters. There is already images of him honking a truck horn or digging coal.

Or, if he wants to be patriotic, how about Sousa's "Liberty Bell"? That's a fine old march that has stood the test of time, and has perfect connotations for this administration. Here's "The President's Own" United States Marine Band performing it:




Most of us will recognize it from another context. You may add your own farty, squishy sounds as appropriate.

Now, where can we find a huge foot?

Opposites attract. No wonder Lindsey Graham loves Donald.

They both have a 'woman problem' but at opposite ends of the spectrum.

Am I better off than I was 4 years ago. Seems to be a fair question.
