Can you imagine when they make a serious movie about this president?

In a few years there is going to be a serious and solemn movie about this presidency and what the country has been through. It is will be a weird experience, especially finding out stuff we don’t yet know. Like the behind the scenes shitshow going in right now.

Imagine the lunacy going on behind closed doors.

I am laughing so hard the bed is shaking.

Steve Bannon and The Ninny elicited some of the most hysterical suggestions. Also Guilfoyle.

Tomorrow’ I will return and do an image search on some of the actors.

Sarah Cooper as Sarah Cooper

Candace Owens as Candace Owens

Texas as Florida



They’ve brought the snark in that thread!

It can be very funny but also quite brutal. You have to have a thick skin to post there.

Sort of like the West Wing, but with bits of Keystone Cops, the Three Stooges, and the Marx Brothers thrown in - and maybe a touch of The History of the World Part I.

They could title it "The Worst Wing."

What bothers me soooo much is that his and Melania’s portraits will lo be hanging in the White House FOREVER.

I actually think of this way too much, and it makes me angry as can be.

Trump’s portrait should be in the public men’s room over the urinals.

I know that’s mean, but I think it’s a good idea.

IN the urinals. Electronics for Imaging makes an inkjet printer that'll print on unfired porcelain tile using special glazes. (You don't know anyone who has one because they're $250,000 apiece and your own tile mill is a necessary thing to have.) So, here's how this goes: We print Trump's photograph on a dozen 24x24 porcelain tiles. We build a 12-man urinal out of tile, with the Trump tiles at dick height for the average man. Trump's portrait goes on to get the respect it deserves.

Just giving the asshole more attention. Nothing like being glorified by having a movie about you. If they do make one wait until he is dead so he does not get to soak up the glory.

Some will focus specifically on the pandemic and what went on in the administration with that.

I'm sure we will even get ones from the Russian Side .

There has already been the Jim Comey one .
