Seriously: Can we just send him to florida and pretend he's potus?

Would it be so hard to pay some retired politicians and world leaders to show up and shake his hand and "make deals" with him and tell him he's the best president, ever?

I'd be willing to spend a few days cheering him from the road, just to keep him there, so we know he can't do anything serious to the world. I'll even wear the hat....

It would be perfect. It would be his own reality show that he could watch all day on TV.

Seaside is an unincorporated master-planned community on the Florida panhandle in Walton County, between Panama City Beach and Destin.[1] One of the first communities in America designed on the principles of New Urbanism, the town has become the topic of slide lectures in architectural schools and in housing-industry magazines, and is visited by design professionals from all over the United States.[2] The town rose to global fame as being the main filming location of the movie The Truman Show. On April 18, 2012, the American Institute of Architects's Florida Chapter placed the community on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places as the Seaside – New Urbanism Township.

No power or any official duties, just call Mar-A-Lago his castle and like suggested, give him some phony duties. At this point I would go for it to save the world.

of royalty than to let him keep doing what he's doing now. The government could hire "courtiers" and "counselors," and "ambassadors" purporting to be from other countries to come and visit and flatter him; there are tons of unemployed actors waiting tables in Hollywood who would jump at the chance to be part of Trump's "court." He could even dress up like Louis XIV if he wanted, and he could record it all and watch it over and over.

Pence says "Excellent shot, Sir," as he drops a clean ball down his trouser leg.
