ALRIGHT, LONG AS I WAS ON THE SUBJECT. I LEFT THIS ONE OUT COS IT DIDN’T FIT RIGHT.

 

1. Funny? I suppose, ‘cause that’s how the Oabomination sees himself.

   The word I would use is ‘sacrilege’.

   George Washington is the ONLY President who was elected unanimously by the Electoral College. Twice! This happened because of his honesty, integrity, and sincere sense of duty.
   (That sense of duty is the only reason he was cajoled into a second term. He wanted to retire to Mt. Vernon, but the Electors convinced him the Union might fall apart without him. He was the only public figure all sides trusted.)

   I find this even more impressive than winning the Electoral College today. Today it’s basically a popularity contest. Back then, the Electors were almost all politicians themselves, the vast majority knew Washington personally, or had to deal with him during the Revolution. Yet they still voted for him unanimously.

   Now, can anyone say the same about a man who’s changed his name several times? Who still withholds his birth certificate, college records, etc? Who never even served his country in the armed forces?
