To know him is to loathe him & I have since 1986-2000 in the Castle Marina where we sailed each weekend where he helicoptered to from NY on weekends. From wife Ivana during mistress Marla & Melanoma in the mid 90’s and everybody saw the open immorality except Ivana of course.Hard to hide Marla so bought the Plaza for his wife to do the decor. Such a DOG! The casinos made lotsa 💰💰 but all possible on 4 billion from banks not being paid natch! His 8th Wonder of the World was over the top & it failed along with other biz’s he bought so NO Contractors workers, vendors, employees etc etc got paid to the tune of $900 MIL but even Daddy couldn’t save him thus 5 bankruptcies. Had divorced & shorted wife, married Marla under duress bc Fred said he must as Tiffany was 2 mos & Melanoma’s face & body was in lights all over the outside of the Castle. He had to sell casinos cause he still owed the banks but all debts went unpaid so others went bankrupt. Watch Netflix: DIRTY MONEY Season 1 “THE CONFIDENCE MAN” 6 episodes and the other true to life doc is FILTHY RICH Jeffrey Epstein (4episodes) I felt choked up by the young girls then as women once finally caught! That freak pervert.

Thank you for the insight. I watched Filthy Rich and was nauseated by the corruption in Florida that protected him. Wasn’t someone called Pam Bondi AG then? Dirty Money is on today’s agenda.

We all know he can't EVER shut his pie hole, much to our collective exasperation.

If Russia is slapped with more tariffs, if it's not on petroleum or vodka, it's meaningless. What else do they export?

I often speak of them this way:

Good single men are just like Russian cars and baby pigeons. You know they exist, but you never see one.

Robin, I live for your updates on the tragi-comedy happening to our country. Your writing is exquisite and perfectly captures the balance.

I humbly offer two small corrections to this piece:

1) Dumb, Dumber, Dumbest and dumbotron junior: I would switch Rubio and Vance;

2) Dumbotron is Kash Patel. We can’t see him, but he was there. Little fellow slipped between the seams of the couch.

Otherwise, it all checks out 😂

David French makes the point that MAGA people only watch Faux News (stolen from Jasmine the Goddess Crockett) so they have no concept of the lies. I only hope they don’t let go of the Epstein show, because I’m having a blast with the meltdown.

Another Robinism I’m using “tour de idiocy”. So dang funny and smart you are. 🌞😎

Thank you for the wit, humor and snark this am. Better prepared today drank the coffee well before and after your post..

So this “Epstein” file & “client list” that’s been around since when .. 2019. It’s been in some vault accumulating dust all the while the conspiracy theories have been fermenting in the MAGA ether and viola now all are perched in the MAGA cult with baited breath to hear all the “juicy stuff” of the blood sucking, pedophiles of the entire Democratic Party.

(drum roll please) - “The ‘Epstein’ files are on Pam Bondi’s desk right now for her to review..” - “But also they ‘Do Not exist’..” (sudden end of drum roll-crowd stunned & pissed off) - “But also they ‘Do exist’ and were written by Obama and Hillary, Comey and Brennan..” (faint drum roll-crowd confused & pissed off) - “And Pam Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB! We're on one Team, MAGA, and I don't like what's happening, Not to waste Time and Energy on Jeffrey Epstein, somebody that nobody cares about..” (drum crescendo crowd really pissed off) - But then those exact conspiracists like Kirk who for GD years who have regurgitated so much bile try to calm the waters by simply mumbling.. “I’m done talking about Epstein for the time being. I’m gonna trust my friends in the administration.” All the while in 2019 Epstein was brought up on charges and died in that same year when the #1 main character in the “client list” was none other than Trump!! .. JFC what a sh*tshow circus “Doo-doot-doodle-oodle-oot-doot-do-do.. SPLAT! WHUMP! BONK! BOING!”

Off to the never ending golf course(s) to play with his little stick & white ball.. “the greatest round of golf in human history” and showing up as his Jabba’s neck and cankles are enlarging to crash the FIFA game and winning ceremony.

All the while there’s that deflection or “weave thingy” trying to bash Rosie O’Donnell and taking away her citizenship, letters that seem to have become policies on absurd tariffs that have become no longer negotiations just whatever percentage number pops into his old, delusional brain cell, deciding oh yea going to give Ukraine some weapons, let’s have a luncheon with those bizarre Christians who love to rip other peoples asses and bash the sh*t out of them just “because they just downright love me”, and gosh darn it stomp around that his buddy Putin was able to blow smoke up Obama & Biden’s ass but never his and going to impose some nasty tariffs on Russia in about 50 days, give or take… (it’s that new math no longer 2-weeks) TACO Felon..

JFC.. thank you for injecting the levity and snark so needed into these truly appalling circumstances. You are much appreciated! Stay safe and healthy lights on for the sane ones..

Watching him with the soccer players and grabbing the trophy away from the team captain (I think?) like he won it himself was nauseating and disgusting. I can't wait for him to be gone. Forever. **UPDATE** Just found out that he actually KEPT the trophy! How did he det away with that? That's not even an American team. JFC

The fact that nothing he does gets to the MAGA base except Epstein. That says it all. Cumulative IQ of less than 100.

Oh dear Spaghetti God, sometimes I feel like I swallowed a hunk of granite, it all feels so heavy. I just can't believe my countrymen see anything remotely admirable or sane in his (and his cronie's) behavior. Thank you for having the stomach and fortitude to unpack all of this every day in a nice, neat, hilariously snarky package. Sigh.
