Oh my God, Nina this is INSPIRED.

Bob the Builder! You made my day and made me laugh so hard. Thanks. Now, out to the back yard to do battle with the jungle that has sprouted with a month of rain.

The thought that there is a team of people who have to take care of this man’s personal needs—wiping his ass, getting him in and out of diapers, bathing his body, dressing him. The thought is just revolting. Who would do that? You certainly couldn’t pay me enough money.

Roy Cohn, Donald's good friend and attorney, seemed to have a huge impact on Donald's behavior. I am led to believe they had sexual relations because of the way Donald views handsome athletic men.

This is brilliant. Perfect. And so funny. (Except for when you think how true it is). Two of my favorite bits: "another in a long line of individuals and events that suggest America passed through a wormhole into a Marvel Comic alternative universe around 2016" and "The only reasonable explanation for this orgy of wasteful brick and mortar is that the handlers need toys and games to keep the old man from disrupting the serious business of making war, destroying the sciences, defunding humanitarians, filling concentration camps, and wrecking alliances - matters attended to with great devotion by Vought, Miller, Kegseth, Kennedy and Wiles - and nameless administration elves whose allegiances are most definitely not to the American people.." These evil administration elves----I can't tell you how much I want to see them all behind bars. And---it's just so obvious how much they need to keep Trump busy. He's got to have a prop, something for show and tell, no matter how ridiculous. We are so screwed.

"Only he can fix it" turned out not to be the case.
