It does beg the question why the white house press secretary is making announcements for the Lewzer Centre.

The interesting question is: Who would show up to "enshrine" him?

Other than Rogan and Rob Schneider.

TV tumors Bill Maher and Joe Rogaine made absolute FORTUNES pretending to be Joe Sixpack and Mary Vassar and on "our side."

For years these two oligarchs distracted, deflected, and diverted attention away from real issues affecting us everyday Americans with blither-blather about UFOs, UFC, Saudi women can't drive, what is "Woke?", blah-blah-blah.

Johnny Carson and David Letterman used to entertain the masses on late night TV; these two distract people with Bread and Circuses, secretly snickering at the great unwashed masses.

As our esteemed Fellow Traveler on the West Coast said: "F*** everyone associated with this"
