Why doesn't MSNBC mention James Comey's big mouth right after

the Access Hollywood tape is what caused so much damage? If Comey hadn't done that the sex tape revelations would have been enough for tRump to lose 2 weeks later.

Restaurant Impossible. The Trump-burger is on the menu

for $14 too!

I started to watch a new episode of Restaurant Impossible where he re-vamped a dying diner " Leah's Korner Kafe" in Colemam, MI. I always read the current reviews on-line first. It turns out that there is something called the Trump Burger. After reading the reviews post-make over I learned that some people left this place without even ordering since they read that a "Trump Burger" was on the menu.

It describes the burger and all it comes with then at the end it says "Making America Great One Burger At A Time".

It didn't mention if it is served with one or two bottles of ketchup. That is how tRump would make over the interior, Jackson Pollock style.

"How do California’s taxes rank compared to other states like Florida or Texas? Take a look"

https://www.sacbee.com/news/california/article273096005.html

"There are two ways to view California’s tax situation."

"But there’s some good news: Californians’ tax rates overall are lower than the national average. However, high incomes and property values drive up the taxes."

"Its combined local and state tax rate is 8.97%, WalletHub found. That includes income, property, sales and other taxes."

"Florida’s combined rate is 8.21%. Texas’ is 12.73%."

"The real estate taxes in Texas are the sixth highest nationwide, amounting to over $4,200 annually on average. California’s rate ranks 36th"

About BigmanPigman

I am 57, retired teacher and illustrator, life-long dem., activist, union member. Also I do not use social media and I'm technologically retarded. I love dogs, rock music and swearing (a lot). My 17 year old "puppy" died on June 2, 2020. She grew up listening to Animals (Pink Floyd). She has kept me sane through the tRump years, not easy, and has given me endless love, companionship, kisses and tail wags.
