. . .there was a solar eclipse and the people were warned about observing it with unshielded eyes and Trump did so anyway? What would happen when Trump arrives in Alaska and all the scientists and news-people and politicians warn him that it is not safe to swim, canoe or kayak in a flood swollen river? And Trump does so and takes Putin with him? That would be awesome!
