    The mad king sentenced the jester to the deepest of the prisons, for he did not like the act. It was mayhaps too truthful to the court, that they should see themselves in the large mirror, held by the jester himself as his special number.

    That’s exactly what it is. The Kennedy Center is box office poison. They surveyed the entertainment market, and there were NO takers. Even people who support him know that if they do a show there, it will be among their last.

      I’m sure they could get David Allen Coe. He is pretty old but not dead yet I think. He could sing his classics. He has a song called n****** Fucker. I’m sure it would be a hit with trump and his chumps.

        I haven’t heard that name in a looong time, since my record store days back in the 80s. I would have sworn he was long dead, so I had to look him up, and he’s still kicking at 86. Only the good die young, I guess.

            Yeah, sure, he was a cockroach though. They only live about a year and half. So he was the longest lived cockroach when he was killed by one of his own.

      So I checked some local theaters Lincoln Omaha, and it seems like at every showing throughout the day there’s one or two seats taken. If or didn’t mean supporting ticket sales, I’d almost want to get a huge group of friends, dress in drag and pride flags and purchase every ticket around that person’s seat.

      They should have just put out a Melania porno from Epstein’s blackmail videos. That had better marketing potential.

      Jellyroll? I don’t listen to him, but saw him on LA Fire charity concert and he seemed like a good dude. I’m surprised.

      Also looking at Minaj face on the pictures it doesn’t look like she is enjoying it. I think she hopes for pardon for her brother and trump has this as a condition. I have my doubts about him keeping his word.

        The jury is still out IMO.

        He said he’s more or less naive to the political climate atm. (Likely due to him getting his life back in order) He did mention to reporters at the Grammys that he is starting to look at things now and that we’ll all find out in about a week.

        All that shit is known. Case in point, how Ke$ha was blacklisted because she tried to hold Dr. Luke accountable. Also, that shit doesn’t absolve her of marrying a fucking pedophile knowingly.
