Hey... a challenge for you: Forget the guys in the pic.. they are pretty equal.., but come up with a caption that tops this:
My entry is : "Frump and Trump"

---
Online headline: "Obama ranked as worst modern POTUS in one area" -- Oooops.. my bad, I guessed Earth... but actually, it's worse.. "President Obama's track record in the Supreme Court is one of the worst among modern presidents. That's according to a new study out of the University of Chicago. * Obama had plenty of high profile wins on issues like health care, gay rights and abortion. But, his overall win rate was "lower than any President of this century.".. and even worse is that Obama use to teach at the U of Chicago ...

---
From above story: "His critics say it was the court's reaction to his use of executive power." -- You know..I interpret this as the US Supreme Court saying that Obama broke his oath to support and defend the US Constitution.. and since some of Obama's Executive Orders can be related to "aiding and abetting"  deaths of police officers as well as street criminals, there is no statute of limitations on "murder".

---
You know.. with all the "hacking" that's been going on, maybe Trump should hire the IT team from the University of Columbia to handle National Security issues...seems no one has "hacked" into Obama's transcripts or his application information....

---
Online headline: "Women's March organizer Linda Sarsour accused of terrorist ties" -- Oooops again! I guessed she was headed up Hellary's protest riots at Trump events.. but.. it's worse.. much worse..According to The Daily Caller, Sarsour was recently spotted posing with an accused financier for the terrorist group Hamas at a large Muslim convention in Chicago. * It is unclear if the two are related even though they have the same last name. * Linda Sarsour has acknowledged in past interviews that she has cousins serving time in Israel due to their work for Hamas.
---
From the "how mainscream media twists the facts" department - Soapbox Moment: You know, we see a lot of headlines about "anti-Trump" protesters/looters/violence. Let's face it.. the facts.. the truth.. is that they aren't "anti-Trump" protesters, they are "pro-Hellary" supporters.

---
You know.. if Democrats in Congress support the vision of Trump, then they will actually be able to run for re-elections on their own records rather than just against American prosperity.. they could even make promises they can keep. How novel would that be?

---
Online headline/story: "Georgia Senate bill aimed at maximizing lottery funds to HOPE * The bill would raise the requirement to 28 percent in fiscal 2019 and to 30 percent in fiscal 2020. In any year, if ticket sales drop by 5 percent or more, the percent return would be frozen and no further increase would be required. * Current law requires the lottery to deliver “as nearly as practical” 35 percent of gross sales to the state. However, the lottery has not hit that number since 1997, and actual performance has long hovered near 25 percent." -- You know.. I'll bet that outside of the Lottery Administration, few people had any idea of how little of the lottery revenue actually gets to the education system, and even less knowledge of how the revenue that does come in has driven the overall costs of college so high that students/families are paying more, percentage wise, than even the expected inflation charts.

---
Palestine officials are up in arms about the US moving it's Israeli Embassy to Jerusalem. Palestine says it will be a detriment to negotiating peace in the area.. Good grief...there's never been peace in the area because Palestine doesn't really want peace in the are unless all the Jewish population has been eradicated.

---
I feel good about having Trump negotiating for America's future..in the last 28 years, all the negotiating between Republicans and Democrats has been over moral issues, and there's no winning for anybody long term when good morals are chipped away.

---
Why is the mainscream media asking questions about policy of various departments when Democrats are holding up the confirmations so the Trump appointees can start running those departments. Shouldn't mainscream media be parked out at Schumer's office asking him why he bogging down the process.

---
There is rumor/speculation/fake news that the Mexican Drug lord Obama extradited into America last week may have donated millions .. perhaps $15 million, of dollars to the Clinton Foundations.. true or not.. it does seem plausible.. Obama brings him into America, and President Hellary gives him a "presidential pardon".. Ooops.. this time, El Chapo's Tunnel collapsed before he could leave...

---
Online story: "Officials said Monday that the Obama administration-- in its waning hours-- defied Republican opposition and quietly released $221 million to the Palestinian Authority that GOP members of Congress had been blocking." -- Hmmm.. wonder if it was in cash like the Iraqi ransom payment? Hope it was a check, and Trump stops payment on it.

The River Road/Bradley Park roundabout will probably take even longer than the Whittlesey Road widening between Whitesville and Veterans. I say this because "the plan" is to not start work until 9:00 AM. and to be finished/cleaned up-for-the-day by 4:00 to avoid messing up "rush hour". When you add up the hour for lunch, and the 60+ combined minutes it'll take each day to get equipment into position then put it back out of the way, the available daily work time will amount to only 5 hours per day.

L-E editorial headline/content: "EDITORIAL * Nunn’s politics of pragmatism * BY DUSTY NIX * “We have a lot less checks and balances in the foreign policy and security arena than we do on the domestic side,” Nunn told the AJC, " --  You know.. without a strong domestic growth plan, it won't matter about America's foreign plans.. Neither Nunn nor Nix has a clue about this. Trump will return America to a strong domestic growth plan.. and that, more or less, dictates the perception of power the world sees America.
 
---
L-E headline: "Senate Democrats propose $1 trillion infrastructure plan" -- Good grief.. sorta like a typical Democrat "wag the dog" campaign promise.. it ain't the Democrats in power.. This reminds me of a situation back in the 70's when there had been a tsunami in South east Asia.. America piped up that it was sending 6 tanker ships of rice to help.. Russia, taking advantage of the time it would take to get those tanker ships there, sent a smaller ship with rice in ahead of the American ships, and told the people that "more was coming soon". Southeast Asia then assumed the rice from America was from the Riussians. Nice try. DemocRATS.

L-E headline: "PHENIX CITY * $4M Central High expansion opens * School district leaders, faculty and students gathered Jan. 17 on the artificial turf at the 34,000-square-foot building off Dobbs Drive for a ribbon-cutting ceremony." -- Hmmm.. $4 Million for a 34,000 sq ft athletic practice/wrestling/weight room with two class rooms as well.. that's about $117.00 a square ft. On the other hand, MCSD has projects they padded the SPLOST with for similar constructed metal buildings for $312.00 a square ft. Glad Phenix City built theirs as if the MCSD gave a contractor the contract, it would have cost us Columbus taxpayers over $10,600,000.00 .
