During his last supper in the manor, the master turned to his family and personal staff and said “Believe me, before the cock crows tomorrow I will have to betray one of you.” As they all wondered, “Is it I?” he corrected himself: “Maybe more than one.” #TolstoysTalesofTrump

Pretty cool that Dorothy Day appears next to Miles Davis.

After a last minute sowing of the fields with salt, the master and his wife prepared to depart the estate. Servants loaded wagons with crates of personal effects as well as all the silverware, bathrobes and bars of soap in the mansion. #TolstoysTalesofTrump

Many people are saying that #TolstoysTalesofTrump was the best Tolstoy-themed satire of the Trump era. Sad.

Tho his hour glass was running out, the master’s most loyal servants were convinced he had a secret plan. Some even speculated he would finally reveal his true identity, vanquish his foes, and usher in the long awaited week of infrastructure. #TolstoysTalesofTrump

When Pope Francis spoke to Congress he invoked the memory of 4 “great Americans,” Dorothy Day, Thomas Merton, Abraham Lincoln, and Martin Luther King, Jr. Not to be undone, Trump has added his own list.
Full list of those getting statues in the National Garden of American Heroes per Trump's EO just now

It was traditional for the outgoing master to leave a letter for his successor. As the final day approached the master found himself struggling to find words that captured his sentiments. #TokstoysTalesofTrump

Lindsey Graham in 2016: “If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed ... and we will deserve it."

Trump wants to make a final dramatic departure from the White House. Something to mirror the great escalator entrance he made at the start of his campaign. For his consideration: Sunset Blvd (1950)- Last Scene piped.video/SA9lFsiut2Q via @YouTube

To anyone who asked the master said that he was working hard from early morning until late in the evening and having many meetings. What he didn’t report was that he was spending most of his time getting ready to descend the staircase for his final closeup. #TolstoysTalesofTrump

Scholars will one day gather there to study his tweets about Joe Scarborough and his real-time commentary on what he watched on Fox.

Feast of St Antony of Egypt, one of the early desert fathers. He lived to be 105. When a philosopher asked how he managed without the consolation of books he said “My book is the nature of created things, and anytime I want to read the words of God, the book lies open before me.”
