Fixing his upside down flag --- which is an international distress signal
















“There’s nothing nefarious about doing anything that’s legal as long as the proper paperwork is filed.” --- Sean Spicer


Let's hear some more from conservatives about honor and morals and principles shall we? I'm so old I can remember them all lining up to lugubriously declare "just because something's legal that doesn't make it right."

Now we have a president who says that not paying taxes for 20 years makes him smart. And that a president "can't have a conflict of interest." And that as long as something's technically legal it's right and good and moral.

I'll say one thing for Trump, he's turned over the rock of conservatism and shined a big bright light on the hideousness that's been living underneath. They'll try to disown him when this is all over (if we survive.) But I'll spend the rest of my life saying "Trump" every time they try to play the morality card. It won't make any difference but it's a useful shorthand to save time.
