If elected, there's no way he makes it more than 90 days before his first impeachable action. In fact, I'll administer the Trump Impeachment Board where everyone takes his/her best guess as to the date he's removed from office (bonus points for naming all counts in the soon-to-follow indictment).

This is an example of one of the many times that I am proud to have you as my Imaginary Younger Sister. Well done.

As for President Trump's first offense, I'm going to go with something related to self dealing with one of his business ventures. The supposed foreign policy press conference in DC that became an infomercial for the hotel he is allowing to use his name in what was once an old post office building is the sort of thing I suspect one can't do when one is actually elected.

In other Trump news, Patricia Lockwood (one of my favorite contemporary poets* - she has really great hair**) wrote an interesting article in the New Republic called Lost in Trumplandia that I enjoyed reading.

*"The Rape Joke" from The Awl was how I discovered her.

I'm not sure we are having a linear conversation anymore. If we move to a cashless system, we will be paying fees we wouldn't necessarily pay otherwise. Every argument after that about how low those fees will be because of competition seems to be a full-on tangent.

Well, yes, there is a massive age gap as well. But that's probably less of a deal breaker than the whole sexual orientation thing. Cupid occasionally creates a May/December romance, but he tends not to create quite as many ones between straight dudes and gay womyn.

I know! "We're on point, Mark, absolutely." Srsly???? As the kidz say, FAIL!!!!!! But otherwise good stuff.

Today's Daily Dose got on my radar through a different song by the group The Mohawks (kind of a one-off group, I think) called "The Champ." "The Champ" was sampled approximately one million times in hop hop tunes. The video for this other Mohawks cut, "Baby Hold On," illustrates the YouTube trend of digitizing vinyl through video. Often, as is the case here, by actually playing the vinyl as part of the video. I freakin' love the horn riff with the bari sax counterpoint. Plus, I love that the handle of the guy who posted it is jimmytheferret. "Hey, yo, it's Jimmy Da Ferret with a Daily Dose of Funk for youse guyz."
