Subject: Little Johnny meets Trump:
Donald Trump was visiting a primary school in
Orlando and visited a grade four class. They were in the middle of a
discussion related to words and their meanings.
The teacher asked Mr. Trump if he would like to lead the discussion on the
word 'tragedy.' So the illustrious Republican President asked the class for
an example of a 'tragedy'.
One little boy stood up and offered: "If my best friend, who lives on a
farm, is playing in the field and a tractor runs him over and kills him,
that would be a tragedy."
"No," said Trump, "that would be an accident."
A little girl raised her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove
off a cliff, killing everyone, that would be a tragedy."
"I'm afraid not," explained Trump. "That's what we would call great loss."
The room went silent. No other child volunteered. Trump searched
the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a
tragedy?"
Finally at the back of the room, Little Johnny raised his hand. The
teacher held her breath.
In a quiet voice he said: "If the plane carrying you was struck by a
'friendly fire' missile and blown to smithereens that would be a tragedy."
"Fantastic!" exclaimed Trump, "That's right. And can you tell me why
that would be a tragedy?"
"Well," says Johnny, "It has to be a tragedy, because it sure as hell
wouldn't be a great loss... And you can bet your sweet ass it wouldn't be
an accident either!"

Re: Little Johnny And Trump
I think there was something similar about British politicians, but there was a different twist, iirc.

Brilliantly funny
I used to be an optimist but with age I am now a grumpy old pessimist.
