  1. Who me? I have no interest in Mars and as far as going there?
    I would rather have to walk thru any major Blue Inner City, at night, with a huge sign on the front AND back of me that says “I hate ni**ers”….I’m not racist, but I would do that over going to Mars.

  2. Trump has made a trade deal: We get anything they have that we want, they get some old clunkers, mainly Cadillacs and Lincolns too. Mercurys and Subarus. And some bars. Gay bars, all they can eat.
