Hypothetical?

How will you celebrate when N.Y.’s A.G., Tish James case goes to fruition and not
only does Trump’s businesses have to pay more than 1/4 of a billion $s in penalties
but she shuts down all of Trump’s businesses in the state and they have to remove the
name Trump from the Trump Tower in Manhattan. That video to me will be like seeing
Margot Robbie in “The Wolf of Wall Street” walking out the door.

I will be having some linguini with white clam sauce, garlic bread, some fruit, and a nice
glass of Riesling ….. Frisk not fancy but I like it.

Btw sorry to post so much but I am still spending time in a nursing home as I get better
from my surgery/illness… out with in weeks … and DU and my new iPad have helped me get
over some tough times.

to boot! Pardon the pun. Will celebrate just by knowing that orange menace is knocked down. Take care of yourself.

2. Linguini with clams is one of my favorite dishes. Nice way to celebrate anything negative that happens to Trump.

He is so hateful that he has racked up all kinds of bad karma!

Trump didn’t own the property nor did he manage it. He just leased his “brand.”

Several years ago, the co-op voted to remove his name. On the first day, the workmen only removed the “T.”

The following day, they removed “RUMP.”

I thought I saw a picture in the Daily News nut couldn’t find it.

It has a festive zest. I think your suggestions all sound just right! Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

….. buildings in NY state especially from Trump tower in Manhattan. He was never really a
billionaire business tycoon it was all a big grift using O.P.M. (Other people’s money), funds
from foreign countries, and from laundering dirty money from mobbed up shits from around
the world through hi properties.

I hope he is suffering daily knowing that a shit train of trouble is coming his way and that there is
nothing he can do to stop it. I am willing to bet a few bucks that he will flee the country at some
point. Why he is not in jail is beyond me.

9. I like your celebration, especially pairing it with Riesling

Riesling was one of my favorites back in the old days when I could chance drinking now and then. Some wines are smooth. Riesling is a cold smack in the chops---but in a good way.

Arent TFG's demon spawn included in the "no more (funny) business in NY" order? If not, he'll just hand everything over to Jr and Eric (shudder() and his stupid name will stay on them. Condo owners might vote to get it off, but that's what it will take.

By the way, if you can ever find Hardy's Australian Riesling, give it a try, it was one of my favorites.
