Trump in IIS

We would have to hope he didn't get aperture fever - he might buy one of those telescopes in South America - or several of them

He would post Uranus puns ad nauseum.

Trump, "Really, they named a planet after it!? I love astronomy!"

An Astrologer? Quite possibly! A lot of his Tweets sound a lot like astrological gibberish:
“Despite the constant negative press covfefe.”

Actually - Nostradamus got it pretty right:

“The great shameless, audacious bawler. He will be elected governor of the army: The boldness of his contention. The bridge broken, the city faint from fear.”
Nostradamus
I would say he is 1,000,000,000,000 smarter than you!

No blindman, you got it wrong ! This is about bagging Donald, not IIS members.

He may launch a preemptive strike against cloudynights. Com ".......with fire and fury the likes of which the world had never seen before".

He might claim to have billions more dollars than I do (but I earned all of mine, I didn't start out with "a small loan of a million dollars from my father"), but I'll back my intellect (and that or pretty well all IIS members) against that of Donald "Covfefe" Trump any day!

Weird but I keep visualising Benny Hill with a drip torch and that " chase" musical plays at the same time.

We have the constellation Coma Berenices or Berenice's Hair, I suppose Mr Egotist would want a constellation named after him called Coma Trumps.

He would rather join Cloudynights as that is 'real American'.
And he would move production of Celestron and Meade back to America.
Make American Astronomy Great Again !
Next step is that we as foreigners don't buy American scopes anymore as they are getting too expensive.

America has only ever had 2 good telescope makers in the past 40 years anyway, neither of which is Celestron or Meade
