Trump said King Charles got the Dems to stand up and clap in Congress - something they wouldn’t do for a kid with cancer.

Troll recognizes troll.

Carter wasn’t POTUS in 1976.

I don’t remember any Gerald Ford Bicentennial memorabilia.

Oh, damn. You're right! Well, like you said, no Ford images either.

I kept one of his 1974 WIN buttons for a while.

If you were otherwise on his enemy's list, then yes.

Not sure that a MDNC grand jury would indict. Were you east of Durham County when you wore it?

I'm going to wear it today in Hillsborough. Unless the Trump FBI has been monitoring this board and tapping my phone, then it sounds like I should be safe.

I remember those. "Whip Inflation Now!". Didn't work out so well. I do think that of all the GOP Presidents since Eisenhower that Ford was probably the most decent as a person and the most moderate politically. Not that he was a great president by any means, but at least wasn't as extreme and reactionary in his economic and/or foreign policies as Reagan, the two Bushes, and Dear Leader, and he wasn't a twisted, scheming, criminal like Nixon or batshit crazy like Trump. I remember Ford once said something like "I am disgustingly sane." What I wouldn't give to replace Trump with Ford right now.

And both attempts were by women, and one of them was a cult follower of Charles Manson, I do believe.

One student grabbed the steering wheel, another hit the brakes, a third helped administer the driver’s medication, and another called 911.
