Crowd: Brava! Brava! Woman: Genius, girl! What a fabulous choice! The way you subverted the airless cynicism of your piece with this corny ending! It's a brutal comment on the form, but I think we're finally ready for it! It really is hip to be square now! JJ: Boy, I missed you! Mike: Me, too, babe. Woman: Oh, look! They're staying in character! Man: Wild!

*" It really is hip to be square now ! "
If you live long enough, eventually, everything that was in and went out, comes back in, again !That’s why guys don’t throw out their old stuff – even if they can’t fit into them, anymore !

A microphone slightly changed position! The number of bricks on the wall differed among panels! Isn’t someone supposed to be on this??

“Please cite any evidence Trump has any integrity whatsoever at all.”.Jack’s World said,“Jack’s World schools DavidHuieGreen on Trump’s integrity:”.“Here is just one example of a good deed done by Trump that amounts to more than anything beneficial done by any of his pitiful detractors all put together:”http://www.thepoliticalinsider.com/a-66-year-old-widows-farm-faced-foreclosure-then-trump-saved-the-day/.“Trump said he yelled at the banker holding the mortgage, “You listen to me. If you do foreclose, I’ll personally bring a lawsuit for murder against you and your bank, on the grounds that you harassed Mrs. Hill’s husband to his death.”
.“Good deed” = “integrity” ?.Actually not, if it would qualify as a good deed. It’s very questionable. He bragged about interfering in a legal action with bullying and threats. In what world would that be considered an example of integrity?.Assuming he is telling the truth this time, he claims to have threatened “I’ll personally bring a lawsuit for murder against you and your bank,” He had no standing to sue. You can’t sue for murder (unlike wrongful death).If he actually said what he claimed, he could reasonably have been charged with extortion, a Mafiosa-wannabe. ,There is the teensyiest, tinyest hint of self promotion throughout it..This is NOT an example of integrity.How could you possibly think it was????..Integrity: The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness..synonyms:honesty, probity, rectitude, honor, good character, principle(s), ethics, morals, righteousness, morality, virtue, decency, fairness, scrupulousness, sincerity, truthfulness, trustworthiness"

Sorry, I mean an actual second unselfish act from Trump. Urban legends with his name substituted don’t count.http://www.snopes.com/luck/trump.asp

Jack’s World said, @DavidHuieGreen.“If she was alive to see the nasty things that you just wrote about him, she would probably describe you as a bitter sorehead and all applicable synonyms thereof.”.If she were alive today, she would know Donald Trump is worse than I have mentioned.You can’t hide behind the dead unless they are bigger than you..I’m not the least bit bitter, just can’t lie to myself and pretend Donald Trump is a man of INTEGRITY. It ain’t happening. That ship has already sunk..synonyms:honesty, probity, rectitude, honor, good character, principle(s), ethics, morals, righteousness, morality, virtue, decency, fairness, scrupulousness, sincerity, truthfulness, trustworthiness.“Yes, the widow that he helped would agree that all of these synonyms do indeed describe the character of the stranger who came to her rescue in her hour of need.”.Honesty? Nope, doesn’t describe Donald Trump, especially if he lied about being able to sue..Probity-the quality of having strong moral principles; honesty and decency.? Nope none of those seem apt. Donald Trump cheated on his assorted wives and with the wives of other husbands nearly as much as Bill Clinton. That ain’t decent..Rectitude-morally correct behavior or thinking; righteousness? See above, including the NO.Honor? There was no honor involved in bullying weaker people and lying..Good character? No, no, no. Wake up child.That is not the kind of character you would want in anyone..Go over the list again all of it. Try to find any which would fit Donald Trump while INTEGRITY includes all of them, not just one if you squinted really hard and tried to turn your head a certain way..“Just look in the mirror. What good deeds have you done lately?”.Most recently I worked very hard to bring light into the darkness of a mindless follower of an evil man.
