An idea to cancel Trump's Parade...

Toss around the idea that one of the charges that Mueller has been using is conspiracy to defraud the US, and start asking whether if Trump were found guilty could the cost of the parade be listed as damages in a civil suit.

A modest suggestion

Want to solve our gun problem-institute a commission at the Capitol and have the names of all the senators and representatives printed on little balls and loaded into a bingo cage. Immediately after every mass shooting a ball should be drawn for every ten citizens killed or wounded and the politicians picked should be rapidly shot to death.
