Dead Bird in Republicans new DC hotel spells doom.

A bird that flies into a house foretells an important message. However, if the bird dies, or is white, this foretells death.



“Nice hotel,” the Republican presidential nominee said. “I think when the hotel opens officially it will be one of the great hotels in the world.”

Trump may have excised from his boasting that for all the work his company did in glamming up the Old Post Office, it appears to have neglected at least one spot.

In one of the building’s antique mail chutes, sitting off the hotel’s grand atrium, lies a dead bird.

It is unclear what species the bird is and how long it’s been there, but feathers and broken limbs are visible through the dusty glass. It’s a bit tricky to see, however. The hotel’s staff appears to have noticed—on Friday afternoon, the chutes were covered up by a photograph of the east façade of the US Supreme Court.

5. Dead bird is bad medicine. Must be why the paint job was so sloppy it failed to cover the black mold

in the corner. The painter was frightened and stopped work.

Bad medicine, like when the young Romney hacked off the hair of a man who went on in life to ride the white horse, instead of him.
Karmas a bitch, it adds up over life.
