OrangeVerse LIX: Your Dream Wedding

"Get married at Mar-a-Lago," they said. "It'll be fantastic," they said. "You might even get to see the former president!" they said. What blushing, rich-daddy'd, Republican bride wouldn't want that? I mean, how could it go wrong? 

Let us count the ways, according to the folks at the Daily Beast, who recounted a recording that TMZ (who else?) managed to get their hands on. Here's the set up:

Former President Donald Trump wandered into a wedding reception being held at Mar-a-Lago but instead of toasting the happy couple proceeded to run through a laundry list of his own personal grievances, according to a clip of the speech obtained by TMZ.

As you know, every day is Festivus for Former Guy, and that makes wonderful poetry for the rest of us, the folks on the 'least likely to be invited to a Mar-a-Lago wedding" list.

News Flash

Y’know, I just got, 

I turned off the news, 

I get all these flash reports,

and they’re telling me

 about the border,

 they’re telling me

about China,

 they’re telling me

 about Iran—

how’re we doing

with Iran, 

howdya like that? 

 

Let's Make a Deal

Boy, they were ready

to make a deal,

they woulda done

anything, they woulda

done anything,

and this guy goes

and drops the sanctions

and then he says,

‘We’d love to negotiate now,’

[and Iran says],

‘We’re not dealing with

the United States at all,

’oh, well, they don’t

want to deal with us,”

And China,

the same thing,

they never treated us

that way, right?

 

Did You See That?

You saw what happened

 a few days ago, was terrible,

 and uh, the border is not

good, the border is the worst

anybody’s ever seen it,

and what you see now,

multiply it by 10, Jim—

you would know how to

handle the border

 tougher than me.

We have to,

and the tough is... in

the most humanitarian

way, because that’s

what it is.

What’s happening

to the kids,

they’re living in 

squalor, they’re living 

like nobody has ever seen

anybody, there’s never

been anything like what’s,

and you’re gonna have

hundreds, and you have it now


The Shocks

they have the airplane photos,

the shocks, and they call ’em

shocks, and these things are

showing thousands and

thousands of people

coming up from

South America

and it’s gonna be,

it’s just uh, look,

 it’s a disaster.

It’s a humanitarian

disaster from

their standpoint,

and it’s gonna destroy the

country, frankly, the country

can’t afford it because

you’re talking about massive,

just incredible massive amounts.

 Our school systems,

our hospital systems,

everything.

 

A Rough Count

So, it’s a rough thing,

and I just say,

‘Do you miss me yet?’

We did get 75 million votes,

nobody’s ever gotten that.

They said, ‘Get 66 million votes,

sir, and the election’s over.’

We got 75 million and they 

said... but you know,

you saw what happened,

10:30 in the evening,

all of a sudden I said,

‘That’s a strange thing,

why are they closing up

certain places, right?’

Congratulations! 

Now, a lot of things

happening right now,

I just wanted to say,

it’s an honor to be here,

it’s an honor to have you

at Mar-a-Lago, you 

are a great

and beautiful couple.


"Get married at Mar-a-Lago," they said. Just make sure you lock the door to the ballroom.
