Wacky Prediction:

malaka harris will Not show up to certify President Trump's Historic Victory.

She will be to drunk to do so. And if she does show up, it will be a Glorious Shit Show!!

btw, watched Fatman last night.

I dunno. At times it's charming, other times it turns into a Coen Brothers movie, and other times it turns into a Wes Anderson movie.

Too quirky for its own good, perhaps.

On Boxing Day you take/exchange gifts with others. This was the English custom prior to the whole Santa/sleighs/drunken reindeer/plaid speed**/gifts under the tree.

RFK is trying to unearth the diet/metabolic trick of Santa, eating all those cookies and drinking all that milk but still remaining comparatively just plump.

80 For 50+ years Mexico had one-party rule. This worked well for insiders as they looted and looted.

One brilliant part of their system was to install a new President every five years. The old one got the blame and would flee to a pampered exile. Nice work if you can get it. I'm looking at you Joe!
