    Meanwhile, Elvis’s ex-wife Priscilla was visiting the Graceland in Denmark of all places. Guess she didn’t want to meet Trump.

    I’ve been saying for a few years now that I hope he dies on the toilet trying to take a shit and blows his heart out. Too bad it didn’t happen AT Graceland

    He couldn’t think of his favorite Elvis song because his brain is destroyed by dementia.

    NO ONE that age that isn’t addled by a cognitive issue would not be able to think of a song when asked. Elvis dominated trumps generation.

      He’s also said he loves the Bible but mysteriously didn’t have a favorite verse. So either dementia or lies, 50/50 really.

        Hell I’m a neo-pagan and even I like some shit from the Bible. It’s a good collection of history, legends, and myth though I can’t recite any verse from memory I do like Samson and think Jesus whipping the money lenders is brilliantly spiteful.

    Maybe if he’s lucky, he’ll go out straining on the toilet just like the King.

        I don’t really understand these things. Conscription is a barbaric practice, how is “draft dodger” still an insult nowadays? Obviously conscientious objection is the higher road to take, but when your government is trying to force you to kill - and quite possibly die - for them, any response is more moral than just going along with it, imo.

        Anyway Trump would obviously win, he’d cheat.
