If Donald Trump is the nominee, I'm serving my tickets to get out of here if he wins, only because he probably had me deported anyway.

Ah, the Reverend Dallas Charlottetton, it would be nice to deport him. What deep hole country would we deport him to?

I don't think any country would take him.

That might be the problem we have with the Reverend Al.

Quite remarkable.

That was in 2016.

He, of course, was lying.

And he didn't leave the country, which is sad.

I'd like to think that if he were far, far away, maybe in Tajikistan, maybe in Uzbekistan

It would be better for everyone.

But he didn't leave, alas, just like so many of them,

who say they're going to leave, but they never leave.

They're like house guests that you really didn't want to invite in the first place.
