When it comes HIS time, the accolades and eulogies will NOT be so heartfelt...

Watching the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter, I am reminded of the impact a POTUS has while in the White House and outside of it long after his term was over. Jimmy Carter was a man of people, of the Gospel, who lived his life as ordained.

When tRump goes, there will be little joy. Disingenuious accolades and false tears. I shudder at the thought. A clown show in life will be a clown show in death.

Can you imagine the horror of it? Jr trying to give a Kendall Roy speech!

The hideous commentary from our beloved liberal media! Maggie H doing her most solemn Trump Whisperer routine yet! Whatever stupid "sexy mourning" outfit Melania picks! Tiff jockeying for position in photos! The sight of Stephen Miller broken and sobbing!

Man, let's just fast forward to that part right now. Sure beats worrying about my city, family, and friends.

More likely I'll be out in the street, dancing and drinking champagne from the bottle.

Not sure it would be safe for a mass celebration (given MAGA's access to guns), but certainly I will put on some happy music.
