I'd forgotten I had a "Trump is Epic" tag. I should go back into the archive and add it to a few things... a few hundred things.

Achilles said...

We are casting off the yoke of a foreign enemy who hate this country.

The analogy works.

Dave Begley said...

A little over the top. But both were shot at by the enemy.

Dixcus said...

This is a horrible analogy. Washington actually shot AT people to protect our country. Trump GETS shot at.

They drew First Blood on Lexington Green.

People looking at Trump's comeback see an event for the ages--literally something that might still be studied and talked about 1,000 years from now. They make a good case.

But it is far too soon to say whether Trump is a curiosity or something much more consequential.

traditionalguy said...

NB: Lexington and Concord was a military operation by the King to disarm th Minutemen. They fought to keep their guns.

Jaq said...

Too many Democrats are fighting each other over campaign tactics, because it is easier than accepting that Trump was underestimated as a candidate. He was a “super candidate” with increasing appeal to a broader electorate-likely beyond the reach of both Democrats and Republicans. - Alex Soros

Narr said...

I don't think Trump is Washington (or Hitler). I do think actors are generally dumbasses, though, and Stallone is a good case.

PM said...

Gee, hope that helps Trump keep his confidence up.

Drago said...

No, its not.

Trump is already, historically, immensely consequential. We are at the point of determining over the next few years the degree of the already exrtraordinary consequentiality.

Quayle said...

Are there any cherry trees at Mar-A-Lago? Because cherries are difficult to grow in Florida, I would think.

Saint Croix said...

Oh shit, somebody better protect the Rocky statue. He's going to be wearing diapers. Or worse.

Saint Croix said...

"He's not getting killed. He's getting mad!"

Ampersand said...

Had no idea Trump owned slaves.

Dixcus said...

Have you seen who is pouring the coffee in the White House?

Dixcus said...

I've been there. To the exact spot. There's a small monument there and about an acre of "park" which consists of grass and one bench. The area surrounding it is practically a ghetto in the Massachusetts sense (i.e. a white ghetto ... they don't let blacks live there.)

I ignore celebrity no matter what side they are on.

Koot Katmandu said...

Wish they would just shut up and sing or act.

n.n said...

Not according to the liars in New York, Georgia, etc.

tim maguire said...

We can't know that for at least 20 years. We have no idea whether Trump will have a lasting impact or just be a blip on history's radar.

Lem Vibe Bandit said...

Definitely the one posting the assassin*** attempt.

I saw a photo of Trump in a boat crossing the Delaware and now I don’t know who’s who.

Did the boat have gold colored oars?

RideSpaceMountain said...

"Trump was seen crossing the frozen Delaware during Christmas to kill fedcoats."

Plausible.

rehajm said...

Yes but what does Bullwinkle think?

rehajm said...

Kind of nice he respected the youngster's question. He could have been patronizing...

I had no idea Washington cared so much about a Jewish state in Israel.
