Most clowns are very skilled entertainers, especially those who make it all look accidental... ( Happens I do not like clowns, but I *respect* them...) Trump seems unable to laugh at himself, only sneer at those he considers lesser folk. I must wonder about his opinion of cats... Fair point. And in...
