EDITOR’S NOTE
Thank you all for the things you’ve sent in so far. We are just figuring out how to handle the ridiculous surplus of great material, so if you sent something in that hasn’t been posted yet, or responded to, it may just mean that our small staff hasn’t had time to get to it. We’re trashing Trump as fast as we can, which is still far more slowly than he’s trashing himself.
