She passed off the jacket as a f**k you to the press. But nobody would wear that on the way to visiting little children being held on the border without their parents.

First thing my kids did this morning was google whether he had any underlying health conditions 🤣

I don't see that praying does any good - if it did, why would nearly a million people have already died of Covid? If someone wishes to pray, by all means do so; but it's not my thing.

I detest Trump, but I hope that he makes a good and speedy recovery (or that it's a 'diplomatic illness'). (1) We're all on the same side against disease; (2) I am scared of Pence becoming President!

Just had a thought. I have an authentic voodoo doll - DSis bought it for me in New Orleans. It's not orange though. Think it'll still work?

romeolovedjulliet · 02/10/2020 19:43

praying if it gives someone comfort that's good, but it hasn't worked for millions in the past so why would it work now ?

2018SoFarSoGreat · 02/10/2020 19:47

The first RBG decision from above. Karma. It's a thing.

Roussette · 02/10/2020 19:48

Talking of voodoo dolls.... I've got one.... OK, this is a story.
And it's going to make me sound a loon so I'm leaving out lots of detail

I had a really awful boss, one that went against all the rules who was vile and mistreated the staff like you wouldn't believe

I stuck a pin in my voodoo doll that was her (won't explain why it was lol) into the foot of the voodoo doll
She went off on a ski-ing holiday and broke her ankle

Ahem, if I pm you the details of my evil boss any chance you could do the same again? Wink

The good wishes for Melania really puzzle me. Have you heard today's news about her vile rant about immigrant children in detention? Did you read her jacket?

When someone tells you who they are. Despise them.

intheenddoesitreallymatter · 02/10/2020 19:54

[quote Defenbaker]@Roussette I agree, the "I don't care - do you?" jacket was an awful thing to wear when visiting that camp. In fact, I can't think of any occasion when a slogan like that would impress anyone, except a trucculent teenager. The one thing Melania normally does well is to dress beautifully, but she failed big time on that occasion.[/quote]
God I'd forgotten about that.

Repugnant family.

I've always wondered if that was a massive oversight or a twisted insight into her humour.

The coat was from Zara and I've never, ever heard of her wearing clothing from a high street store before or since.

Vagaries · 02/10/2020 19:54

Excellent, @Roussette. But you clearly had some of her toenail clippings. Who can source Trumpian hair/nail clippings? We need his manicurist or hairdresser!

Fromage · 02/10/2020 19:55

I won't pray for them because I hear Satan doesn't accept requests until the stroke of midnight and I go to bed early.

They’re human beings for God’s sake!
You say that OP, but I have it on good authority that has a lizard person who pays folk to steal and terrify children before harvesting their hair and sticking it on his own head with their tears.Sad

Roussette · 02/10/2020 19:56

@Vagaries

it was hair from her hairbrush actually

Pretend I didn't say that lol

longwayoff · 02/10/2020 19:57

Not praying but have sent crate of bleach via Amazon. Wine Donny boy.

So are the women held in immigration centres on US soil being subjected to undergo forced hysterectomies. I'd rather save my prayers for them, thanks all the same.

2 wrongs don’t make a right 🤷‍♀️
No, but they do make us feel a lot better.

@Calabasa

no.

well, i wish Melania well and a full recovery, but the evil wotsit can fuck off.

🤣🤣🤣
pointythings · 02/10/2020 20:04

OP, why those two before all the other people on this planet who are suffering from COVID? Why are they top of your list?

I'm an atheist, so I won't be praying at all - but I do feel a certain schadenfreude.

Ok... I'm going to do something to my voodoo doll tomorrow. If it works, you can thank me later Grin

Cheers for the thread OP, wouldn't have thought of this otherwise!

Roussette · 02/10/2020 20:19

If you can link anything to your doll and your boss, it well might work

Please please do let me know!
