A. Drag a replica of his fat, orange body by an overly long red tie through the town square like they did to Mussolini's actual body.
B. Buy all the discounted MAGA merchandise that professional grifters Ivanka, Uday, and Qusay will mark down and burn it in a public setting.
C. Buy $150 and up bottles of Scotch and go on a celebratory 3 day bender.
D. Throw a party that will make your wedding seem like a quaint garden party by comparison.
E. ALL THE ABOVE!

Sure, I'll be singing "ding dong the witch is dead," but a president vance or holy mike will not deliver us from fascism.
I think the reason the Epstein scandal is even a thing now is because the fascist powers that be no longer think they need Donnie.

Nothing big, nothing showy.

Something like Talenti's Doble Dark Chocolate with these incredibly intense tiny dark chocolate "chip" shards! Or Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Therapy, or New York Super Fudge Chunk. Or all three!
The next day a restaurant that has chocolate lava cake w raspberry sauce.
I mean it's such an grand occasion it's at least a 2 - 3 day celebration! 😄
Plus glass of milk with a drizzle of creme de cocao.
"Screaming" w joyous laughter on the phone with like-minded friends, and family.
If people are dancing outside on the streets, I'll go join them, too!
😄
Some favorite meals: lamb kor ma, Greek lamb gyro, pasta Alfredo, Chinese BBQ tips and sesame chicken, shrimp tandori

(13,163 posts)Go out and shoot into the air like Iraqi citizens did when Sadam and his boys met the end, it will not be safe to be outside. Those bullets gotta come down.
And MurKKKa got so many guns and bullets.
Probably more than Tali s and ISIS combined.
And we probably all got em from the same place. MurKKKa.
It I will damn sure fire a few rounds and run back inside and do All the Above.
But maybe $150 bottles of wine. My old ass can no longer handle the hard stuff, and I wanna party a loooooomg time.

(1,812 posts)The old style that is too tannic to drink until its 15 years old. I drank the first three years ago when my youngest graduated college.
I will drink the second with a beef Wellington and a side of ricotta cavatelli with a ragu and locatelli Romano upon Trumps death.

(29,417 posts)I stumbled on it by accident once. For years all it said was "No - check back later". So when the time came, I did check back. There were links where people could post their celebration plans.
No crocodile tears or "respect for the dead" like we got when Reagan or Bush I died. And, if you've never watched Glenda Jackson's speech in the House of Commons when Thatcher died it's inspriational. I hope at least one Democrat has the courage to make a similar speech about Trump (like they should have with Reagan) ...but I won't hold my breath.
Jackson's speech:

(20,982 posts)Nor will I watch the fiasco of a funeral as the former 1st Family give their FAKE eulogies about how "WONDERFUL Daddy was" and Melania's FAKE act of being nothing more than a rich widow, as $$$$$$ flash before her eyes.. TACO's lying in state at the Capitol will stink up the place. I pity the Honor Guard for that detail.
NO Arlington National Cemetery for you, buddy! No honors given to you by World Leaders about how well-liked you were. If at all, the world will continue to laugh at the name TRUMP as they have been since before 2015. The Jeffrey Epstein scandal will still be there as Jr. and Eric try to take the reins of Government. They and the entire family will be awash in the shame that was TACO Don. Barron is not immune from the ridicule, for he sticks out like a sore thumb.
My life will go on as best I can navigate it. Those whose surnames bear TRUMP, not so much. As Marc Antony said in his soliloquy in Act 3 of Julius Caesar.
"Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their bones"
The EVIL that is TRUMP will remain in the news and it will not be good. There is NO gold plated Hell where he will be going.
