Kicking Dingbat Don Around (MyLot Exclusive #1654)

Tweet

"...you don't have Nixon to kick around any more, because, gentlemen, this is my last press conference." -----------Richard Nixon, on Wonderific Wednesday, November 7, 1962, before 100 reporters at the Beverly Hilton Hotel ((If you want a little more of that speech, the end of it is linked below)). How many Scaramuccis are we away from Dingbat Don firing Shady Vance and then bravely dropping out of the race with the "You don't have Nixon to kick around anymore," speech? And wouldn't it be a fitting end to his joke of a political career if he did it Melania style without changing a single word? And didn't change Nixon to Trump? Don't just stand there! Call Lorne Michaels right now, because that needs to be an SNL cold opening! People his age go downhill fast. And he's already halfway to the bottom ((Trump, not Lorne Michaels)). And now that he's stepped into the ring with a young energetic Woke 59-year-old who doesn't need diapers and/or an oxygen tank, his deterioration is just accelerating. And, if he drops out before the election, he won't lose to a girl and he can spend the rest of his life ((In prison, God willing)) talking about how easy it would have been for him to win. But he had to quit because the whole world was so totally unfair to him. Then, if Mr. Michaels thinks this sketch needs a third act ((And he might, because he doesn't understand comedy like we do. Plus, he likes being difficult to work with)), we can cut to Trump's funeral. With George Jessel delivering the Princess Diana eulogy, Melania style. Almost, with just one word changed, “Above all we give thanks for the life of a woman I am so proud to be able to call my sister, the unique, the complex, the extraordinary and irreplaceable Donny, whose beauty, both internal and external, will never be extinguished from our minds.” Why does George Jessel get to do it? Because he was famous at the end of his own life for giving eulogies. And Lorne is old enough to remember that period. And, his regrettable blackface phase will hit with MAGA but no one else remembers it. You could call George a DEI pick. And then the finale. The Coup de grâce, if you will. George sings "Oh How I Laugh When I Think How I Cried About You." Who are we going to get to play George Jessel? How should I know? I'm just the writer. You're the hotshot Producer/Director, not me, so casting is your headache, not mine. With that in mind, let's go to 1919, to see what the Cosmic Universal Funeral Anthem Song Of The Month Club Funeral Anthem Song For Today is. With a stop in California in 1962 to see Dick Nixon. ************** November 7, 1962 - Richard Nixon following his loss in the 1962 California gubernatorial election https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA1edgj1U5E ############## Oh How I Laugh When I Think How I Cried About You (1919) A 1919 popular song.
