4. I'd suggest we either bounce checks or fail to pay our
mortgage, credit card, or car loan payments, but that would be an expensive proposition, along with charging something we can't afford. We could donate to some organization like the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation that is already awash in cash. We could find a homeless person to lecture on taking responsibility for his/her plight. Or we could drink ourselves into the type of stupor that marked his last 6 years.

High debt, funneling money to the rich, stiffing working people, creating homelessness, and sleepwalking through a presidency are his real legacies. If we want to honor them, we have to duplicate them.

Overturning every awful thing that was done in his name is a more laudable aim than honoring it, IMO.
