Trumpy Bear

Holy cow I think I’m going to be sick. Just saw a commercial on TV Land for “Trumpy Bear” -a teddy bear that has hair and eyebrows like trump. It’s stuffed with a throw blanket that’s a replica of our flag. An older lady putting the blanket over her legs, a vet biker on his Harley with the bear riding in front of him, and a yuppie dude riding with it in his golf cart are the spokesjokes. I kept asking Mr. Alliepoo if the ad was a joke or a spoof. Sadly it wasn’t. Completely surreal. Holy cow. I guess I won’t be watching Andy Griffith any more. I can’t take seeing that commercial again.

I considered purchasing one, but I'm not up on my Voodoo.

I think that there might be reasons to buy this over priced bear.

I'd like to make a tiny noose and drag one behind my truck and film it.

But there's zero way I'm going to pay for one right now, and after he's in jail it won't have the impact I want.

But that would be a hoot, except for the death threats and all.
