The Friday Fives

1. What are things just not spoken in polite company?

President DonaldTrump.

2. If you could tell him one thing, what would you say?

Isn’t it just time that you just went away?

3. Who will replace him?

That is difficult. He is a cult leader and there are usually no cult leader replacements When the leader fades away the cult whithers. Many will step up but remember he has had over 60 years building this image and developing these self-marketing instincts combines with his shear pathological narcissism. There will be many who try (and have already tried) but they will be seen as the charlatons they are. His act is alreay tiring, even on those who voted for him.

4. How will this all end?

A severe caridac incident due to a calcified vascualr system.

5. Why him again?

He ran on a palate of lies and his only intention was to stay out of prison and to exact revenge. And, our nation is racists and sexist and wouldn’t vote for a black woman to be president.
