That is what a vindictive person does. Obsesses and getsbackat. Are you a getbackatter and obsessive or d'ya think you would make a good president for all the people? Would you punish/silence the opposition or does freedom of speech/press mean something sacred to you? Even when the speech/press criticizes you? Why?

Why?

Sometimes we don't get what we bargained for but we are stuck with it...at least for a certain amount of time. Some situations are more intolerable than others. Some people are more adaptable/obedient than others. Are you obedient or recalcitrant? Why?

Does anyone else think what she said is absurdly ridiculous?

He isn't handsome or physically attractive or charming or charismatic. He sees himself that way of course but we all know he isn't that person and never can be. Melania is beautiful and charming and I think probably charismatic in person but she will not be the president. She has made it very clear that being First Lady is not as important to her as being Barron's mom. Good for her! I hope she sticks to her guns and doesn't allow her husband to force her into leading a life that isn't a good fit. less

Sadly Charlie lost his wife of 65 years in December 2016 so he really threw himself into preparing for this year's gig to assuage his grief at losing her. But he has been replaced. His replacement is a guy named Steve Ray. No need to tell you that he is a Trump supporter and we suppose this is Steve's reward for being a Trumpeter. At the expense of tradition and the heartbreak of another human being. So what, right? Time to move on. Screw feelings. Screw empathy. Screw tradition. Out with the old. In with the new. Isn't it gonna be fun to see what other hearts/traditions are broken? Dancing in the streets to the beat of the Trumpet. Hey hey hey. :( less

At night, I would take a running start and jump, so that whatever lived under there couldn't grab me by my feet as I climbed on to it.

Going to be an interesting week some of trumps cabinet picks will be on capital hill for confirmation hearings, And Trump will hold a press conference to discuss possible conflicts of interest and the Russian hacking. Cheers!

Hollywood, foreigners, and the press."Really? Seriously? No. Just no. The press and Hollywood are some of the most privileged segments of society. Whether you measure it in terms of cash money, prestige, fame, or an ability to fail year after year and get promoted, Hollywood and media elite do not get to cast themselves as victims.
