Trump, 79, Crashes Wedding to Ramble About Heaven

President Donald Trump crashed a wedding taking place at his Mar-a-Lago resort on Friday to lecture the happy couple on how he might connive his way through the pearly gates.

While speaking with the bride and groom, Trump became distracted when he saw right-wing radio host Eric Metaxas and began shouting that the man would be his ticket into heaven.

“He’s going to get me into heaven!” Trump said, shaking Metaxas’ hand.

The prominent Trump supporter and children’s book author replied: “I want to talk to him about getting into heaven… but not here. Not here.”

IMO this is how DJT thinks he will escape justice here on earth...and it can't come soon enough...

that wants to get in his good graces throws parties, weddings, retreats down there, because the amazing amount they have to pay, goes straight into Trump's pocket.......But the number of people the place can take is rather limited.....Just why the hell do you think he is so intent on the White House Ballroom that seats 900 dinner guests.....

When he has his uber rich dinners down at Mar-a-Lago, he charges 5K a plate, but it is a small occupancy, (90 people Max), and he has to pay for staff, food etc.

If he gets his Ballroom, his grifting can explode exponentially ...............It will seat 900 people, and all expenses, for everything, staff, catering, cleaning, wait staff, kitchen staff, organizing, increased secret service, etc are paid by the taxpayers since it is a "White House" formal dinner.... He is planning on sending out his own personal invitations, and the RSVP will be sent back to him, including whatever he wants to charge per plate.. That way, there are no records of WHO attended, and HE gets to keep all the money Cute, Huh.......
He is also offering permanent floor tiles or wall stones?, for Large Donations by the Uber rich, top 1%pers, and esp. Corporations who have business with the government currently, .....or ones hoping to get in on the grift favoritism by sucking up to Trump. He is already doing a ton of that stuff, but this opens up a whole new universe......Soon, if he already isn't doing it, he will demand, from all his CABAL a share of the money they are collecting in their grifts....(Think Kristy Noem and others, including one Supreme Court justice in particular who has made his entire career into a humongous Grift in exchange for his vote)

Is incredibly telling to me....

donnie has likely been told that given all his 'beautiful MRIs lately' (what kind of healthy person has 2 MRIs in a single year) that the finish line is in sight for him....

Also, putting aside my comments about the newly wed couple choosing to get married at that shithole, what kind of asshole crashes a fucking wedding to steal the spotlight?!? (that's a rhetorical question for the current WH occupant).

You live. You die. You did not exist before you were born. You will not exist after you die. You get the time you get.

And guess what? You have wasted almost 80 years already. Time's running out for you. Think about it. Think about your life. How did you live it?

But remember: When you die, none of that will matter to you. You will no longer exist. Ponder that, Donny.

Note to readers: The above is my belief. You might believe something else. But that's what I believe

Never in a million years. I don't care what planet he is on, there's just no room for him. His corruption must not go beyond his current state.

Just stop and think of the millions that have died on his watch. Mostly because of his actions and inability to make rational decisions and policies. His first session was by far, his worst.
