"I'm in no position to give advice to President Trump, he can take care of himself"

i.e. he can screw it up by himself, I'm not getting involved.

A meatpacking town in Kansas opened its doors to Somali refugees. Then a group of Trump supporters plotted to kill them after Election Day.

Lweji Yeah. I get the impression (if I'm reading this correctly) that Flynn has just dropped them in it - he says he told them, they say he didn't.

Ginger - re your satire link. (Which is horribly possible if 45 speaks extempore, I fear.)

I've probably told this story before - but I used to have this older friend who herself had a friend who was a Sultan. (This was back in the days when being a sultan meant something: you were a seriously big cheese in your country.) Anyway, he was a purportedly religious man and the Quran apparently enjoining Muslims to have only 4 wives on this earth, he apparently married a fifth but set her up in a palatial houseboat in the bay.

Now, religiously, that may be all sorts of wrong but let's trust..................
