2. I think this should be a regular thing.....

Once a month. The orange menace's birthday is in April, I believe. That would be an awesome time/date to do it again, but I think we should all spend money that day. We should all donate to the ACLU on that day, especially if it is his birthday. Imagine headlines that ACLU, who is fighting him at every turn, gets x amount of money donated on his b-day. That might drive him around the bend.
