One reason I ain't wish nobody dead and I ain't celebrate nobody dyin' is cuz Trump frequently does.

I do not want to be like him, or his, in any way.

I follow a lotta lefties, cuz I'm one, too, and I get pretty down sometimes reading them wishing for and then celebrating someone's death.

It's just not who I want to be, not how I want to live.

@GeePawHill . . . but Twain said we can read certain obituaries with great pleasure, right?

…and Trump is an asshole. He is simply a crass man. He’s sick. When he’s gone, his children will be fighting over his money and no one will care. Perhaps he’ll be buried on his golf course next to Ivana. If it’s good enough for her, should be good enough for him.
