the USA to The United States of Trump. You think he wont do it? The Gulf of America is sufficient to remember Amerigo Vespucci, right? Who cares who Vespucci was
just another sailor. The country should be renamed after its greatest President right? RIGHT???
Meanwhile, last weekend my wife and I went out for my birthday dinner to this very nice (and famous at the Jersey Shore) restaurant. We had a drink at the bar and then went upstairs for dinner. Afterwards, when we came downstairs, I remembered that I didnt have smaller bills to tip the parking lot attendant, so I stopped at the bar, saw the lady bartender, and asked her Do you remember me? She said that she certainly did and I asked her if she could break a 10 for me
That two fives would be fine. She took the bill and walked over to the cash register.
While she was doing that two fairly big guys were sitting at the bar, one of them was wearing the usual red hat with the lettering on it, and he said Id have given you two fives for a 20. And I said Yeah, well you need better jokes more than the 20. His companion then said I would have given you a 5 and 3 ones and
And I cut him off right there and I said, And what YOU need to do is improve your math skills.
Now the interesting part of this is at no time while engaging in this repartee did I look at them, I was watching the lady down the bar and didnt even give them the dignity of staring at them. The last thing they expected from this older guy was that kind of instant instantaneous comeback and they just sat there semi-stunned. I took my money from the bartender, thanked her, and went out to my car. My wife said to me, that was amazing how you handled them.. I remarked to her, Yeah
but thats exactly how bar fights start.
I know it doesnt sound like much, but you sort of had to be there. Fucking MAGAs.

The next President can sign an executive order that "Trump" forthwith will be known by his German surname, Drumpf.
From Google:
Ancestry. According to biographer Gwenda Blair, the family descended from an itinerant lawyer, Hanns Drumpf, who settled in Kallstadt, a village in the Electoral Palatinate of the Holy Roman Empire, in 1608, and whose descendants changed their name from Drumpf to Trump during the Thirty Years' War (16181648).
