Ronald Reagan first earned the term, but Donald Trump is the true "Teflon" politician. Nothing sticks to him. Not 91 felony counts, not court cases he has either lost or is going to lose, not any outrageous thing he says or does... it all just slides off him.

Nah... only the gullible rubes let it slide; there is plenty of gunk on the Don's exterior. Why else do you think he has that orange hue?

I'm thinking we'll probably have to wait until the New Year. I have a thought about the theme as well which could be combined with your 45 singles theme ... we lost a great many from the music world this year so how about a tribute to all of them, in Canada and around the world!

I’m thinking about a 45-rpm singles theme. Perhaps we could coordinate our schedules before too long.
