"God, I hope not!"

"What should we do if he does?"

"He's not speaking to most of us, so maybe nothing."

"At least we know to expect his stupid Alpha Male handshake. I'm all ready for that."

"If he shakes your hand at all. You really got him last time, Justin."

"Remember how George Bush stroked my shoulders that one time? That was creepy, but Trump is worse."

"Don't worry, Angela. You're one of the people he isn't speaking to."

"Gott sei dank."

"He's supposed to be visiting us this summer. The Queen won't see him but I'm afraid I have to."

"I have an idea. Let's forget about tariffs and just fucking embargo everything."

(Applause)

I note that these folks look happy enough right now. That won't last once Lord Littlehands arrives.

because he'll insult the host, pick fights, take the best food for himself, fart at the table, puke in the kitchen sink and eventually pass out on the living room couch, which he will also befoul in his sleep. When he wakes up he'll start breaking things, and as usual the police will have to be called to remove him.
