Hey, whatever works.

“Fake news!” Just like global warming, it will never happen.

I wonder if you had to be a rocket scientist to think that up?

Trump don’t need no sun. He shines with his own inner-brilliance. Just ask him. Bigly.

I wouldn’t doubt that if someone said that line to the Idiot in Chief he would believe it.

Republicans don’t believe in science. We should tell them that the eclipse is a sign of god’s displeasure against Trump.

The new moon is a time to take stock and begin new projects. Will America decide to become more or less racist after the eclipse?

Trump was born during a Lunar Eclipse, which makes him more susceptible to the power of eclipses. Humans have long monitored cosmic events for clues about the future, and eclipses hod special meaning. Solar eclipses have been interpreted as evil omens by many civilizations because the life-giving sunlight is obscured for a few minutes. Then this rare solar eclipse could have major implications for Trump. It’s possible that there will be a sudden health issue that lands on Trump’s shoulders, pulling him out of the Oval Office. It’s also quite reasonable to suspect ousting, either through official channels or a mutiny behind closed doors. What we can say with reasonable assurance is that astrological charts when properly considered, make it difficult to imagine Trump has smooth sailing ahead. Other dates to watch for: October 10th, November 21st and 26th and December 17th through 19th.

With someone at scientifically ignorant as POTUS what do you want to bet that he has to change his pants after the eclipse. What do you want to bet that he says a few prayers before the sun comes back. I’d like to be a little fly on the wall for those two minutes. I’ll

The ONLY WAY he would notice if it gets too dark for him to sink a putt…

Eh, Rump would just see eternal darkness as an opportunity to make money selling light bulbs— and solar panels to power them.
