To the people of Scotland, from a grateful American:

Thank you, people of Scotland, for giving Trump the welcome he deserves. Thank you for your always hilariously caustic insults that, however imaginative, can never truly plumb the depths of this most revolting excuse for a wannabe human. Thank you for standing in solidarity with we Americans who see this walking pile of pestilential feculence for what he is, and constantly hope for his exit from the political scene, in whatever form that exit may take.

The sooner you send him packing from your eye-poppingly beautiful country, the better for everyone. Don't allow him to soil such a wonderful place, in whatever form that soiling may take.

You have my undying respect, affection, and love.

Thank you again.

Aristus
American veteran and patriot

Everybody should look those over and throw a few at him, or about him, whenever possible. They're hysterical!

Had a lady friend from Edinburgh who could get on a roll with some rollicking phrases. When I was the recipient of those finely rendered words I could do nothing but sit back in awe.

A well chosen word for the sign!

I recommended this but unfortunately I also pressed the alert button. I have forgotten how to get around this joint. I don't know if you will get notification or I don't understand what's going on. I'm just old. Anyway it was worth a recommendation. Best sign ever!

peace

I recently came back to DU after almost 20 years I guess. I recognize quite a few names but I don't know if anyone would remember me.

BUT your post here is very descriptive and I love it. Very well said, thank you.

From a getting old, old lady who could never say what you just did nearly well enough to have any impact.

Almost as much as “ferret-wearing shit-gibbon”, and “incompressible jizztrumpet”.
