Burn baby burn


Sometime back Donald Trump suggested we make it illegal to burn the American flag. That would put us in the company of such luminaries is China and North Korea and others who have such rules against what they consider anti-nationalist conduct. Now we find that classified information was shown to the Russians (as in their ambassador) during a White House meeting, and this was right after firing of FBI director James Comey and Mr. Trump's citing that that "Russian business" had been going on too long.
 Want to make him really mad? Bring a Russian flag and burn it quickly before he makes it illegal.

Donald Trump's exceptions

Donald trumps lawyer says reviewing his last 10 years of IRS returns, (at least someone gets to see them) that he did no business with the Russian's except for "certain exceptions". Interesting exception, Willie Sutton the famed bank robber lived from 1901-1980, and in all those years (approximately 29,000 days) only robbed banks on 34 of them. Again, a few exceptions.
