But I think she tore out Barack's basketball court to put in the tennis pavilion.

I did read it somewhere on the magic internet machine.

Just checked out what happened and apparently it was always a tennis court, but Barack had it retro-fitted for basketball. So I guess the answer is yes and no.

Doesn't Melania know that nobody plays tennis any more? Other than Serena Williams and Roger Federer?

shows us why we really don't want a tennis court there.

Now I have to go wash my eyes out with soap. But first I have to wash my hands really well because that thing in that photo isn't taking care of us, so I have to worry about washing my hands 300 times a day.

I swear I feel like I'm in Seinfeld's opposite world.

I am so sick to death of seeing him, let alone hearing his voice. And every time I hear the next stupid thing he is doing, I swear my blood pressure goes up 50 points.

I am trying not to hope too much, but boy am I hoping November gives us that 180 degree flip we need.

I don't want to see a republican for as far as my eyes can see. I want to see that Blue Wave take over the country!

pave a 36' x 78' asphalt tennis court. Everything done by the grifting trumps has to be over dramatic. The hard hats are,a bit much.

If the Fat Bastard loses, you can bet he'll do everything in his power - and then some - to leave Joe Biden as bad a situation as possible.

Like those rotten kids that kick the board after they lose at checkers or chess.

I think the tennis court is the least of our worries.

And it's not IF he loses, but WHEN.

Besides being extremely destructive if they get into a cabin, they will urinate and defecate on small animals they kill, even after they've eaten their fill, so no other predators can eat their leavings.

Not exactly the 'wolverine' Republicans picture, when they binge-watch Red Dawn and its (even worse) remake.

But as you pointed out, one much closer to the reality.

First, he’ll try to overturn the election, and when that doesn’t work, he’ll start thinking about all the crimes for which he might be prosecuted. Then, he’ll decide when to resign so Pence can become President for a Day and pardon him. Between the election and January 19, he’ll try to destroy everything in sight. There will be no official government documents left behind for historians to chronicle the disaster that is the Trump presidency.
