Hi there, Friends. Can you imagine what Thanksgiving will be like at the Trump house? Ivanka did not even show up when Dad decided to announce his next run — and truth be told, probably his last. And Junior was stranded somewhere on one of his weird hunting safaris. And actually, it looked as if The Donald was boring himself to sleep during his own speech. That’s bad.
Maybe we should try to imagine next year’s Thanksgiving for the Trump family. I can see all three kids showing up to smuggle contraband into dear old Dad’s room. And the orange uniform will be quite complimentary to the orange man’s complexion. (I have it from a reputable source that he really is orange)
The kids will probably bring a picnic basket full of goodies to supplement the ex-president’s bland jailhouse diet. At least 50 Big Macs.
And imagine all of the wonderful stories the ex-president will have to tell about his bunkmate One-Eyed Pete. Then there will be the yarns about group showers. And of course, the kids could not help but imagine why Pop had a pretty little flounce around his waist. But we guessed it had something to do with a guy named Gorgon the Magnificient. He would meet the family later.
Personally, I never liked Thanksgiving. When I was little, I asked “Dinner? That’s it? No presents? No candy?” I still am not crazy about the dinner part, but that’s just a quirk I acquired over the years. And now I understand. There is something far more important. The people.
Wishing you the Thanksgiving you hope for. And if not, I hope it’s at least tolerable. Remember, the Maggats are emotionally based, and no logical argument will ever work. So save yourself some energy, smile, and count the minutes quietly to yourself under your breath until you can leave. Those around you will just think you’re talking to yourself.
Stay safe. Stay well, you and yours!
