I don't know about any of you, but...

lovely Ann and I went out for dinner this evening. It was our first evening out at a restaurant since August. I found myself examining other tables trying to identify Republican traitors dining near us.

Is wearing a baseball hat in a dining room a tell? Just askin'.

If it wasn't a MAGA hat you don't know anything about him, except that if this was a classier restaurant the guy was pretty gauche. Some liberals are also gauche, though.

We will regularly get to go from local restaurants but I can’t fathom eating inside.

Well, except in restaurants. That’s just rude. Now in a brewery or a pizza joint I will certainly wear one, but not in a sit down restaurant.

We still dine out. If the place has outside spaced dining. Not eating inside no matter what.

Did he order hot dogs and beer ?

Did he poop in the dinning room,... then smear it on the walls ?

Did he have a Glock stuffed into his front pant waistband sticking out on top where everyone could notice he was carrying ?

Was he rude, honorary, and mean spirited ?

Did he have on a stained and dirty white T shirt with a pack of Camels rolled into the left sleeve ?

Was his wife a bleached blonde ?

Was he driving a beat up old red pick up truck, with bald tires, and two ten foot tall flag poles attached to the side bed ? One pole with a huge trDump flag and the other pole with a Confederate flag on top with a USA Flag on the same pole below the Rebel flag ?

Yes,.. he might be a trDumpet.
