Will Friday the 13th Bring Bad Luck to Trump?

We can hope. Perhaps this is the day something is dropped in the news that will ruin Trump's weekend. Maybe a video from Russia? Maybe irrefutable evidence of him conspiring with Russian? Who can say.

So, cross your fingers, and throw some spilled salt over your shoulder.

Really, though, the only way he won't become President next Friday is if he refuses the position.

the public criticism and pressure gets to him and he resigns. He's clearly unhinged. It shouldn't take much,

Even the 1%ers shouldn't be sanguine at what's coming.

I thought it was "bigger than the Rosenbergs."

Now we're back to waiting for "something to drop"?

God I wish I had a buck for everyone of these THIS IS IT threads. Smh.

Once an election has been held, it can seem a very long time before another one comes along. At this point, we're stuck with the results from November 8. I'm for looking forward and finding ways to correct our error.
