If we could set up a Truman Show scenario where Trump thinks he’s President again and the public send in scenarios for him to deal with, what would you suggest?

Absolutely my favorite thing that came out of that shit show. I really wish the person that set that up, or at least a first-hand witness, would do a tell-all interview. Was the actual Four Seasons booked and some underpaid, overworked intern said fuck it, good enough? Did Google somehow produce a landscaping company as the top result? What was Rudy’s reaction?

Here's a pretty good story that was done shortly after the incident. They didn't get the scoop from someone inside of the administration unfortunately. I'm still waiting for that follow up.

Yeah, I read a few stories where it’s spun as being intentional. But that’s really all they could find for a venue? There must be a few wealthy Trump supporters/donors in that area with a nice lawn that would have served better.

Literally anywhere else would have been better for them. Not for us, Four Seasons Total Landscaping was the best choice for the comedy loving public, but Giuliani could have stood on a soap box screaming at passing traffic on 95 and it would have better for them.

It concerns me that I had no issue conjuring that image in my head.

I think this means you’re based in collective reality.

Unfortunately, that means you are in contact with reality.

The line from Watchmen comes to mind: "Now if you begin to feel an intense and crushing feeling of religious terror at the concept, don't be alarmed. That indicates only that you are still sane."

I feel like that's where he belongs honestly. Hopefully somewhere rather toasty so he's constantly leaking.

Goddamn it.

Another image.

Rudy leaking.

That's still coming after he loses all the various lawsuits, all his money, and the rest of his mind.
