I once had the temerity to suggest that the best "punishment" for Trump's misdeeds was to put him under house arrest at Mar-A-Lago where he could focus on himself without interruption. Then I read the following in Vanity Fair:
Inside Trump's sad little Mar-a-Lago life, where his assistants beg people to call him and 'boost his spirits with positive affirmations' and people clap after he cuts his food with a fork and knife.
Here's the full article. I guess I was prescient.
First, the background.
.....so the former POTUS, who served the Nation from 2016-2020, had a wonderful Mar-a-Lago lunch with white nationalist Nick Fuentes and rapper Kanye West (aka Ye).
Part of the conversation centered around Ye's intention to make another run for POTUS in 2024. He asked the former POTUS, who served the Nation from 2016-2020, if he would serve as his VP.
The former POTUS, who served the Nation from 2016-2020, became irate & according to Ye:
"When Trump started basically screaming at me at the table telling me I was going to lose — I mean has that ever worked for anyone in history,”West said in the video. I'm like hold on, hold on, hold on, Trump, you're talking to Ye.”

WTF? Who would get a Kanye tattoo in the first place? Steven Miller, that's who.
Do you remember, as I do, Ivanka saying about her father: you will not find anyone who will work harder for the American people; that he will never give up. Well, god bless her little heart, she was right. Keep it up, Donald. You're the best at positioning the Democratic party for continued success.
