It appears to be authentic: MSN are reporting it.

It's either authentic, or it was done by someone who's studied Trump's penchant for randomly capitalizing words that do not need to be capitalized and is able to flawlessly imitate it.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

I will believe this is actually from the real Trump when I see a verifiable, non-photoshopped picture of Mr. Trump standing at the entrance of a Christian Church, holding the Holy Bible so everyone can see it.

My faith in the sacred truth of every word in that book means I believe that if such a thing were to happen, there would be a repeat of Acts 5:1-10.

I wish everyone a thrilling holiday season, particularly a sincere wish that all had a wonderful Festivus and Airing of grievances.

Merry Christmas y’all.

Do yourselves a favor and watch the FX/BBC A Christmas Carol with Guy Pearce - it’s a brilliant adaption, one I think that Dickens would have loved. It’s on Amazon Prime and Hulu.

I am a faithful reader of the Calvin and Hobbs saga. Yesterday I believe it was revealed that this resourceful and insightful lad, along with the wise tiger, live in Buffalo, New York.

Where else would he be able to construct all these snowmen, and still leave all the ground covered with snow?

Happy Boxing Day. Remember, the Christmas season still has ten more days. If you send me swans a swimming and lord leaping, I will not sign for them.
I could always hock the golden rings, even if they are 10K gold wash. They ought to bring at least the price of a cuppa senior coffee at McDs.

I cannot help but observe that you do not seem to share that attitude when it comes to accepting delivery of the ladies-in-waiting and the milkmaids...

I count at least 25 words in that tweet which Trump keeps using even though they do not mean what he thinks they mean.

When I first saw that I thought it had to be a spoof. Entirely plausible, like the best spoofs: but in the end you would have to suspend disbelief (or is it suspend belief?) to think it was anything but a wickedly good parody.

Sadly, it's real of course. And there are still people who think this guy should be POTUS all over again. That's the truly mind-blowing aspect of ll this.

Today the political pundits who follow the stats said that a small but critical percentage of the usually die hard GOP voting base voted against, or cast no vote, for the candidates who were trumpeting their intent to undermine the electoral process in future if elected. It seems our republic is depending at present on a small minority of truly ethical citizens to hopefully forestall the reincarnation of the Trump monstrosity. Fingers crossed for the next two years.
