America has never seen a Trump before. Let us hope this is the first and last. Let us hope he achieves one good deed that truly deserves his name on it and benefit the poor.
He is proud of buildings and monuments with his name emblazoned in bright lights on them.
Is the Kennedy Center a done deal?
The $300-million ballroom is in the works, a football stadium is under negotiation and some greedy billionaire who needs a big favor from him will be granted his wish from the richest president in the world.
And that coin! I do not approve of that image on the coin. The man is much better looking than that. Someone needs to work on his hair — never mind there is nothing in the head.
He probably has numerous visions of where and how his name can live on forever.
Some suggestions:
He can clean up the Potomac River and rename it the Trump Dump. Put a boat on it and attend to his social media jokes there, away from the grind of the Oval Office. He can nap unseen and away from prying reporters.
Rename D.C. Make it the 51st state. New name “Trump State.” Just imagine his party to open the $300-million ballroom in Trump State. What a gloating moment!
Oh! He might want to rename a few bridges. For example, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Brooklyn Bridge. Commuters will be happy not having to pay tolls on the bridges because his name will ensure that the tolls are not needed. His name in lights from the Pacific to the Atlantic.
And how about an airport? We can not leave out an international port of entry where all those foreigners, heads of state and dignitaries would want to arrive under the big bright “Trump” symbol of one-man rule and unlimited power.
Ellis Island could be the Trump Detention Center, and the Statue of Liberty could be renamed the Statue of Loyalty to honor his loyal lackies.
And if he has a heart — for those American poor, he could set up hundreds of food pantries in every state with “Trump Food Pantries” in big bright flashing lights so the starving poor and homeless can not miss them. They surely will thank him for the food! Perhaps one of his billionaire friends could help with this project.
Another Trump thing in big letters could be shelters where poor homeless mothers and babies (and men too) could spend a night when it is freezing out. The poor will bless him for the bed and blanket under a roof. Another billionaire could help out here.
In this way, when Trump dances in the new ballroom, or eat hot dogs in his named stadium, or where the super rich congregate, he can feel important (even if he is not) and brag about his gifts to the poor.
And when the poor and hungry can easily find a Trump food pantry or a Trump shelter for the night they too will be happy that they live in America.
An ego is a sick “organ” for which there is no cure.
America has never seen a Trump before. Let us hope this is the first and last. Let us hope he achieves one good deed that truly deserves his name on it and benefit the poor.
Is anyone taking notes on how his children are raking in the mighty $$$? They have now exceeded a few billions. Someone, please tell the billionaires that they can not take $$ to heaven.
Three years is a long time. Let us hope democracy survives!
