@mmiasma My stupid character was named Two-Ton (or "Teuton", I stole that from somewhere). He weighed two tons and shouldn't have been able to walk on most floors, but he was too dumb to know it. He had super strength and would tie his opponents into pretzels. He also admitted to liking pretzels.

It occurs to me that Trumps most enduring effect on the United States will be having those of us that survive him wearing sackcloth and sitting in ashes before the rest of the world long after he's dead.
I have to get it to him, that's some next-level revenge.
