All he has to do is open his mouth, move his lips, and stuff comes up in my throat.

He sounds like he's going to fly a couple of garrison flags, 20' x 38' each. Those require very hefty poles sunk pretty darn deep to deal with wind. Way back in college meteorology class the prof did a presentation on the subject, starting with the size and fabric weight. Not to suggest that trump has the intellect to comprehend details . . .

... of the first pole. Then same pole immediately under will be a Fuck Brandon flag.
.
On the other pole will be a Confederate flag at the top, with a coiled snake on a yellow flag - "Don't Tread on Me" immediately under. With a Russian flag being the third flag on that pole.

Of course the American flag will remain atop the roof of the White House. But the flag will now be flown upside down into perpetuity so we all remember the 2020 stolen election where the Tangerine Menace got cheated and Biden stole that election right out from under trDUMP.

it's ALWAYS 'APPEARANCE OVER SUBSTANCE'.

He's a HUCKSTER to the bone and always will be. He hasn't ventured beyond the garish WRESTLING days of glitter and braggadocio.

In short: a classless, insecure LOUDMOUTH.
