Andy Borowitz Let's just cancel April Fool's Day, since we're living in an April Fool's prank year-round now.

LOL Anne that Bill Maher video is hilarious and at the same time sadly so accurate. Makes you want to both laugh and cry at the same time. We may all want to hide under the bed when he meets with the Chinese leader this week.
DH and I decided to come back home last night rather than waiting for today, and that worked out well. Had a lovely time Friday evening with a nice dinner out with DH, and then yesterday spent the day with DD, DSIL, DGS, and DGD celebrating DGS's birthday. It was wonderful. DGS played back-to-back baseball games yesterday morning, and this grandma yelled and clapped and cheered him on. Had a wonderful time!

I hope so! I definitely don't think he can be bluffed the way Tweety seems to think he can. That appears to be his solution to everything, just try to bully and bluff until you get your way. Not working very well for him thus far, and when it doesn't work for him that means it doesn't work for us all. To send out such a message right before the meeting is outrageous.
Heard Maxine Waters being interviewed while driving over to visit my mom and dad today. She was talking about the fact that Tweety keeps holding these head of state meetings at Mar-a-Lago. She made a very good point about the fact that these are meetings with heads of state and as such should be held at the epitome of our country's power, the White House. By holding them at Mar-a-Lago, Tweety is not representing our country but rather trying to flaunt his own wealth. As protocol conscious as the Chinese are by culture, I wonder too if it could possibly be seen as some sort of slight to the Chinese President? Tweety can pretend to call it "the Southern White House" all he wants, but the fact remains that it is his personal resort and has nothing whatsoever to do with the representation of our country.

He may be trying to convey the perception of Mar-a-Lago as the defacto Center of Power.

" Tweety can pretend to call it "the Southern White House" all he wants, but the fact remains that it is his personal resort and has nothing whatsoever to do with the representation of our country."
Why not? He's pretending to be a president and he's pretending to represent the country, so why not pretend his Florida place is a White House? The whole damn thing is pretend!
Now I'm thinking about won ton soup and chicken chow mein.

He's going to take care of North Korea by himself. May God help us.
