Sharing a laugh in these rough times.

We have a good friend who is at the failing heart stage which means the doctors are trying to figure out next steps and trying to determine if there is a possibility or even a feasibility of a heart transplant versus a heart pump. It's grueling as we wait for the answer. So during the frustration of waiting for an answer and watching the equally frustrating political news, at the top of my head I say, "It's too bad we can't exchange medical situations between our friend and the president", and I get the following response:

"It wouldn't help him. Trump has no heart."
