I wonder, my friends. I’d like to know if Donald Trump has ever vacationed in the delightful state of Maine. state that has left its stunning footprints etched in my soul, Maine is the exact OPPOSITE of Trump. Where Donald Trump is bombastic, Maine is tranquil. Where Donald Trump is a senile orange Tarzan, Maine is a harmonious mountain laurel that welcomes peace. In fact, Mainer even has its saying: “Maine, the way life should be.”

I mention all this because Trump, mind popping with senility, got into a kerfuffle with the Governor of the great state of Maine. It happened on Friday, as Governors took up Trump’s invitation to lunch. It was not a happy and peaceful lunch.

Trump began bragging about his war against transgender people and demanded to know if the DEMOCRATIC Maine governor would comply with his wishes.

Janet Mills, the Governor, kept her calm even as the “President” started to lose his mind in real-time, proving that with Trump, lunch is not ALWAYS about rest and relaxation, particularly when the host has significant brain issues and says extremely stupid things.

“I’m complying with state and federal laws,” the Governor said sweetly. That did not appear good enough for Mr. Brain-drain-drop as he glowered and said:

“Well, we are the federal law.”

Then came this:

“YOU BETTER DO IT”

Ah, it looks like Grandpa escaped from the mental hospital again.

Then Trump proceeded to threaten the Governor with the possibility that they would not get any funding.

By now Trump, loony ID happily released, then started insulting MAIN constituents, no doubt ensuring that Susan Collins, who is up for relations soon, will be VERY concerned.

Trump derisively called the population of Maine “somewhat liberal” and again threatened not to fund the state.

But the governor of Maine’s response was priceless. Mainers are tough people, and they do have the ability to reduce someone to mincemeat with just a few of the right words, without anger and faux rage.

“Good, I’ll see you in court,” Mills said.

Trump then dissolved into a full-on (episode?) saying, “That should be a real easy one,” after warning Maine’s governor she won’t ever work in elected politics again.

After the lunch blissfully ended, Mills released a statement saying her state would NOT be intimidated by a crazy, senile old man (OK. The crazy, senile, old man are MY words, but she did release a statement saying Maine would not be intimidated.) Bravo.

I think the moral of this story is that when a senile, doddering, long-in-the-tooth decrepit traitor invites one to lunch, just don’t go.
