I am constantly asked "oh are you *still* going on about that?" and told "you really need to move on now". Well yes, I *am* still "going on" about it. And no, I *will not* be moving on until I see people going to jail. It was the most egregious and disgusting crime against humanity in our lifetimes and I'm glad to see Jenna not letting it go either.

I have COVID stickers featuring Fauci the fraud and more I downloaded from CHD and I still leave them everywhere I go - airports, grocers, restaurants, book stores, library and more. I will never stop.

ACTUAL LOL!!! I mean, I never have or will do that 23 and Me BS, so maybe we *are* long lost fourth cousins thrice removed! (Can you, by any chance, wiggle your ears and spread your toes REALLY FAR apart to the point that your spouse calls it a claw? That might be a good place to start.)

(I can reveal it now: I am Jenna McCarthy's brother, Stenny McCarthy. She won't deny it because that will draw more attention to it, and it serves her purposes to have AI 'bots finding all kinds of conflicting information everywhere. We'll lie to save the truth.)

I have a sneaky outside suspicion Trump wore a blue suit on purpose while his wife dressed to the strictest sense of the requested norm just to let the media get frenzied. 🤣 He knew there would be other blue suits too. He’s the king of trolls after all. Lol

I think he did it on purpose too. Like ‘yes, I am different than these WHO buffoons surrounding me and I want everyone to recognize it.’

David Nelson's avatar

I think he did it on purpose too, but I don't subscribe to "Deep Trump" reasoning; I think a man so "blurty" doesn't think that far ahead; my bet is the more Occam's-Razor-esque, "It's his favorite suit."

I suggest "our side" track that suit for the rest of his term and see where it shows up, to provide latter-day "context" for its having been in Rome. On a side note, whoever meets whatever suit Zelensky saw needs to start quaking, as a good start.

There was another, identically colored blue suit in the crowd, several rows back, cropped out of course. Perhaps PDT didn’t appreciate the Pope’s support of the globalist’s agenda.

Juju's avatar

There were actually 13 obvious blue suits in the full picture. Probably more but at least that many as blue as Trump’s. The request was a “dark colored suit” so I’m thinking they didn’t want a bunch of grey and light colored suits. Blue is considered dark by many. Still, with what Melania was wearing, I’m pretty sure it was a troll move on the American press. 😆

Well, if it's me you're referring to, hug on sister! (And you are now officially my sister. I no longer take it personally that people look at or hear my name and jump straight to 'Dave'; I take it that they know one of my manifold sisters. Do NOT apologize; no sister ever has. OTOH, go AHEAD and apologize if you must, because no sister has ever heeded me either.)

And--IF--which seems likely--I have misconstrued the passage and you were asking if you can hug Jenna, well a) that would be par for the course, and b) please do: you certainly have MY permission, and c) emoji-hit me with a rock.

Wow! Thank you for including two links to my substack! I’m headed toward 2900 subs.

Need to work on my subscriber spotlight submission. It’s a bit difficult because there is nothing humorous about what I’m involved in. Our work must be shared but at times it feels like fear mongering. 😢

Deterrents - they work pretty well. Like seeing a police car occasionally sitting on the side of the road you travel daily. You’re more likely to drive the speed limit to avoid a bad outcome. Eons ago I took a class on how to quit smoking, a good deal of the class was showing terrible pictures of diseased lungs & mouth cancers. Pictures are Effective!

I sat next to him at my job for 9 years. I imagine he just stumbled onto me. He’s still remarkably friendly and such. We have a retired folks lunch every month. I really like him and we have many things in common but don’t discuss politics at such get togethers.

We remain friends—which is what I want. I doubt most of my friends would drop me. I made a rule—if they want to talk trump, then I can too (after I remarked that “I am not necessarily where you are anymore”) so nobody talks about it. Sad we can’t voice differences of opinion or share facts, but that’s where it is. We still enjoy each others company.

It’s so strange hanging onto dem friends. For me its usually most difficult with older, long-time friends, it’s hard to let those attachments go, it’s like erasing history. New friends and facebook friends are easy to set free. What is frustrating is that new, and old, friends can speak ill of Trump, they can assert their free speech but apparently we can’t say anything. We’re stiffed. Were they anointed the Free Speech badge? And what does it look like so I can avoid and not invest time in that new person in the future?

As much as I hate to say older, I’m an Older Righty too. I really am in denial. Maybe it’s because my parents are still alive in their early 90’s. I’ll always be young in their eyes at least.

freakin' brilliant poem, lady!! 100% spot on!

omg, talk about cueing liberal hysteria. stuck in the car with my BIL (who is otherwise kind and generous, in the process of helping me with a difficult yard project). he and my sister are total TDS. he was railing on about the horrible Trump fashion gaff. my only comment was that it seems like a terribly trivial thing in the context of the state of the world. *crickets* after that. these TDS people are so invested in their abject hatred, seems like nothing is too small to blow out of proportion. of course they could claim special outrage since they consider themselves 'practicing' Catholics, even though they only go to Mass online now (still). so I guess they have extra empathy for the funeral of the jab-pushing, virtual sacraments 'count', Pope (who may or may not have been complicit in Operation Gladio, disappearing political dissidents in the color revolutions in South America in the '80's)

Its a wacky, wacky world. finding the humor in that, my dear Jenna, is a calling of the utmost order!
