How many flushes would it take to get rid of all these documents?

@spocko you wanna burn them simultaneously in your 17 fireplaces.
@spocko if you have a dozen monkeys flushing a dozen toilet every two minutes and you have thirty boxes of documents with one hundred sensitive pages each, you could probably flush them all in about ten hours with smoke breaks for the monkeys. But if there are ten times as many pages that would probably take ten days unless you doubled the number of toilets and had twice as many monkeys working in shifts. Though you’d probably be better off with a flamethrower.

@clmerle Thank you for doing the math! That earns a follow from me.

You're being generous with the monkey smoke breaks. Trump would make the monkeys work while smoking, like Mr. Burns did in the #Simpsons episode "Last Exit to Springfield" written by @JayKogen & Wallace Wolodarsky.

BTW, i tweeted to Jay praising that episode. He responded
"Honestly don't remember who wrote what. And @AlJean and @MikeReissWriter and a bunch of other people wrote on the show too."

it was the best of times it was the blurst of times

What I've never understood about the flushing thing is that everyone pretended along with him that a dozen flushes would get something "down". Most of the time, when stuff doesn't go down, an extra flush doesn't help, it just backs up the toilet and the bowl overflows.

The only thing I can think of is he was trying to get his shit off the side of the bowl because he was too afraid to pick up a toilet brush.

@darrelplant my thinking is that some of them floatedand the floating is what required multiple flushes.

I'm attaching a funny video clip that #SethMeyers made about Trump Flushing documents.

Thing is, he was on the low-flow toilet beat (and it wasn't just toilets, he derided low-flow showers, too) back in 2019. I haven't tried flushing entire documents, but pieces of paper that are floating would be more likely to flush than waterlogged pieces.

Given the amount of meat in his diet, I suspect there was very little floating.

@darrelplant
I don't want to think of the smell!

@spocko

No escaping it. It follows him wherever he goes.

@spocko some light reading while taking a dump? Top Secret Toilet Paper?

@spocko

No wonder donny stopped trying to eat them all. 🤭
