As much as I loathe political talk and politics in general, I really enjoyed this piece, Michael. I laughed, I thought, and I also got that Taylor Swift song stuck in my head so all in all, I count this as a win.

Great. I didn't know you were on here. I am very pleased to see you. And I hope, at some point, you will update me on the amount of pizza you are eating on pizza night. (2 slices).

I'm off pizza at the moment but I did eat two chicken breasts today!!!

Speaking as a vegan, I was more enthusiastic about pizza night. But in your honor, and for this comment, I am going to think of chicken as a vegetable . (I believe it is a form of a mushroom.) And mushrooms are supposed to be very good for you. So KUDOS!

There is an extreme significance to the number of ethical lawyers he’s fired or who have quit or refused to represent him. Experienced attorneys generally avoid lawyer changing clients.

Also my understanding is that lawyers like to get paid for the work they do.

This is pure comedy gold to a criminal trial lawyer of many years:

How are they going to find a jury of his peers? He has no peers. They’d have to dig up twelve Mussolinis and even then you might have to disqualify Mussolini because Trump’s peers ought to have big, beautiful heads of transplanted hair.

The Kubrick stare. Google it. There’s a meme out I can’t attach. A forward tilt of the head with upward menacing glance indicating he’s near the peak of his derangement. Think clockwork orange. Think Jack Nicholson in The Shining. The killer in Full Metal Jacket. Your conservative cop is one of the flock. They think what they’re told. I don’t think reasoning and logic is gonna work with that crowd.

Since Sesame Street has an amazing history of burning the don to teach kids how to recognize and not be deplorable assholes, You and Debbie should write another kids book in the spirit of “Little Donnie and the terrible, horrible, no good , very, bad day”

Why don’t you have a talk show? I’d listen to you rant like this for ... maybe not hours, but several minutes anyway.

I’ll commit an hour.
