Vulgarities, insults, and mean words have never had a place in my home and I see no reason to change that policy at this late stage of my life.
When a vulgar, crude person appears on my TV screen, the channel is changed or, if necessary, the TV is turned off. My radio is tuned to an all-classical station, which is ever-so-soothing at those times.

This is my RSVP for the Ignorguration.

As the person who's been selected for ignorguration is an ignoranus.

ignoranus: noun. a person who's both ignorant and an anus.

The Amish have the best way of dealing with their own who violate the cultural traditions. They shun them. Even though they're physically there, the community treats them like they're invisible. Trump is a good candidate for this punishment. He craves and is obsessed with attention. Deny him that and it'll drive him crazy, or crazier.

20. I completely agree - shun him

I believe the whole world should shun this man. The only concern of course is that he will likely escalate with a temper tantrum for attention, most likely involving something no one can ignore - nuclear weapons...




There are simply no words to describe the feeling in my stomach when I think of the terror we will be living with for the coming years as long as this man is in the Oval Office.

But shun him I will. I will never refer to him as POTUS and only as Comrade Trumpski to accurately reflect how he got to where he is and where his true loyalties are, or some other appropriate name that reflects the ugliness and evil of this racist, sexist, evil sack of shit.

Did you make that up, Donkees? Just terrific!!! And accurate, also. I already spread it around where we went visiting, earlier today. Everybody there loved it, too!
