Maybe that's because it's Palindrome Week, meaning that each day's date, if delivered in American numerical format, can be read the same forward and backward.
The number-fun actually lasts more than just one week. Tuesday is 9-10-19, which backward is... 9-10-19. That formula continues with 9-11-19, 9-12-19, 9-13-19, 9-14-19, 9-15-19, 9-16-19, 9-17-19, 9-18-19 and finally, 9-19-19.
The pattern doesn't hold if you write your dates with the day first, as the Brits and Aussies do, but they'll have to make their own palindromes. "Tacocat" works, or "A Santa Lived As a Devil At NASA," if you want to get creative about it.
There's been a Palindrome Week every year since 2011, but enjoy this one while you can. As Time and Date notes, "every century has nine years with 10 Palindrome Days in a row. These years are always in the second decade of the century." The next time this neat number game appears is in 2021.

OR alternative reality would be for Tiffany and Baron and Eric and Donjohnjr to get in the mix. 32 years of trump not including Ivaka whose last name may be Kushner but she will always be a white woman trump. There ya have it. The kids of the kids will take over and it will be the forever American dynasty y'all have prayed for to GOD. Sometimes HE answers your prayers. less

He backtracks on it. Why? Because someone (NRA hay hey) or elsewise others that he dearly fears gets to him and THREATENS him and he rolls over whimpering and pulls the rug/plus on his prior COMMITMENTS. He is a wishy washy pichy tichy icky wicky yucky man.
They are prodon trumpicans through and through. No doubt about it. Of course being that they are prone to lying so I guess that is why they mis identify. Sheesh. FOR SHAME.

Can we afford another "misspeaker" "misstatement maker" "mistake"?What is so WRONG with having a leader who is well-spoken, intelligible, intelligent with integrity and virtually gaffe-free? Is that un P.C. to thee? Geez sheesh good grief. What gives?
That's all that he has delivered... enriching himself... and since they are all still there he must have delivered bigly on their expectations. Or else? Well what or else is possible?

So every win in a House or Senate seat is a plus and a must and a "what's it to you punk?" They like being out from under their white sheets marching and chanting racist slogans and carrying signs of white is right and non-white isn't!mr trump takes credit for the victory in North Carolina as well he should. Congrats to all White Nationalist racists. May you rest in piece in peace in peas. less
Some of his attraction to men slipped out. He adores Vlad and Kim sends him "love" letters or so he says. Or maybe that is "lovely" letters. What's the diff?

Some are fast like Anthony Scaramucci's. All swing both ways. A subtle admission/confession into how mr trump is hard wired? Naw. Well mebbe? He does have an eye for guys though I don't think one has ever sued him for sexual abuse. he ain't dead yet.

Not those who died on foreign battlefields fighting in wars which is what he draft-dodged FIVE TIMES.But wherever patriotism and self-sacrifice and loss of life is concerned no matter the situation/occasion having a draft dodger speechifying about it seems inappropriately unsuitable to me. You?

You just IGNORE them. Is there anything wrong with those who do that? Dual personalities? Bifurcated brains? Possession by the devil? An otherworldly grotesque entity from a different UNIVERSE and a different TIME?

We've ignored them and turned to the despots and dictators in the world. I doubt they would stand by us and embrace us and send troops in to fight with us.You reap what you sow. You plant weeds or poison the land nothing will grow. Remembering the America that used to be makes the sadness that much deeper. For me and I was on the other coast watching it on TV in horror along with millions of you. SIGH. less

Show reverence and respect? Do you think he has it in him to do that? Just for today? Sigh. I hope so.

We are hooked. A little place to go to escape hate negativity anger despair ugly criminal corrupt evil. If you're happy with that stuff 24/7 just ignore this. If you aren't?

They are unfolding at will and he is impotent to stop themSo how does he get out from under? PURPOSELY SCREW UP so folks will not re-elect him of course. Make sureeveryone is suffering financial especially his base. He will go out of his way to keep the China Trade Wars going so they will lose their homes their jobs their medical coverage. Wait and see. He is clever he. Of course he will blame the Dems but fewer and fewer sheeple will listen. His plan in action and accelerating daily.He already proved he is a chickensh** coward. He will BLAME a rigged election on his resounding humiliating loss. That will give him lots of whiny ass ammunition to justify his flameout. He is desperate to get out from under. Now he may not last to November 2020. He may wig out. I don't think you can FAKE that but maybe you can. We'll see what happ... less

Do you really think TANNING SALONS cater to the already dark-skinned beauties/hunks? NO. They cater to the pasty whites who want to be in the game and so go out of their way to PAY to become what their brothers and sisters under the skin are naturally.That's not bad enough. The whites who tan who are white nationalist racists are sending a mixed message.

EXACTLY the same. Ever wonder why?He sold his soul to the devil to remain the same outwardly but a portrait of him is in a closet, door closed, that is aging and showing the evil he is becoming more and more each day on his face/body! The day he passes away he will morph into the vision on the portrait and it will be dangerous to look upon it. All twisted and evil and deformed and VERY OLD ANCIENT DECREPIT. And the portrait will go back to being how he appeared the day he sold his soul.A thought. I don't know the origins. I just pass them on! :) less
