Hello, fellow Wednesday fans! I mean the day, not the popular Netflix™ series. Although obviously, Wednesday fans would be welcome as well. The italics make all the difference.
Greg Dworkin will be on hand to celebrate. He was actually a big Wednesday fan back in the day. Meaning the day of the original The Addams Family show, and the original Wednesday Dance, which Wednesday has apparently updated.
That’ll give us a chance to climb out of yesterday’s Trinidad/FIFA/Cambridge Analytica/Trump rabbit hole, and get back to the very immediate and very horrible things Trump is doing today, and right now.
Today’s countdown numbers:
- It’s Day 22 of the shutdown. Sorry, we’re still closed!
- 1,186 days remaining in Trump’s legal term of office
- 377 days until the midterm elections, if we have them
- 438 days—if we have those elections—until we seat that new Congress.
Our random country generator says, today’s an unlucky day for: Tonga!
Yes, Tonga. The number one exporter of super-tough toy trucks!
That’s what we’re telling Trump, anyway. He loves trucks!
So that’s what we’re hoping will keep our islander friends safe today.
Ha ha! Oh, well. That’s Our Trump!™
