You're the lifeguard at Mar-a-Lago and Donald Trump is drowning in the pool. You can either rescue the former president or take a dramatic Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph; do you select high contrast color film, or do you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

Keep sending it back to the kitchen until it meets your standards. Then ask for a bottle of ketchup…

But, as soon as I come back to the pool, I'll do my best to save the drowning victim.

No regrets essentially because it's not my place to do harm to anyone.

property illegally and also illegally swimming in his pool. All while the person is close to drowning or in fact, already drowned.

Then tRUMP would sue their estate, for dirtying his pool etc.

A huge orange turd has been seen floating in the pool. It's gotta be closed until the Health Dept can get here to give us the all clear.

The only exercise he gets is driving his golf cart.

He never let himself be photographed in swim trunks.

In the pool of course.

Then I would announce to the MAGAs present that I am here to save him, right after the government shutdown he ordered is over. They need to respect his desires, and let him save himself. After all, he is a billionaire.
