Day 88


He managed to bring back the 1918 Pandemic, the 1929 Depression, and the 1968 race riots all at the same time.  I'm done - I've had enough "winning*".  

Can we all just agree that this experiment of having a dumb TV host and shady real estate developer with six bankruptcies, five kinds from three different marriages, 11 charges of sexual assault, and 4,000 plus lawsuits as president is not going well at all?

It was Spy magazine that first coined the term "short-fingered vulgarian" for Donald Trump back in 1988, and the term stuck.  Reviling Donald Trump - what the smart set have been doing for nearly 3½ decades now.


For the record, Spy magazine lasted until 1998, a full decade past Trump's expiration date.

*Also for the record, 5 million coronavirus cases and over 160,000 American deaths is not what "winning" looks like.  With 118 cases per 100,000 people. the United States is the 10th worst in the world (but we're ahead of Equatorial Guinea!).  For the sake of comparison, Cuba has 2 cases per 100,000.
