    This reminds me of that old story. One, I have tried to live by.

    There was an old man with a huge watermelon patch. Every day a group of kids would come over and steal a single watermelon. The old man was furious about the kids stealing his watermelons and devised a plan. He went out and posted a sign in his patch that said “One of these watermelons is poison. KEEP OUT!”

    So, a day goes by, and no stolen watermelon. A week goes by no missing watermelons. The old man is just so pleased with himself and his success. But, then he wakes up after about a week and a half and goes to pick some watermelons, and notices that someone has put a smaller sign next to his. He walks over and the smaller sign simply says “Now there’s two”.

      I remember my freshman year of summer marching band practice, we were rained out and so we all gathered in the band room to practice music, and for some reason the band director decided to tell this joke, but the rain kept getting louder and louder.

      But we already know Fred Trump was a shitty father that left Donald a pile of money and a desperate need for validation…

        What we don’t know, is the involvement of Erol Musk, a much more shitty father, in this and how it led to Donald being named Donald in the first place…

          I suppose with Trump’s that natural, effortless shitbaggery that just seems like breathing for him, I shouldn’t be at all surprised he comes from a long line of shitbags.
