The British have a wonderful tradition called Question Time where the Prime Minister (and all the cabinet ministers) stand in Parliament to answer questions asked him by members for approximately an hour every time that the body is in session. It might be a lovely idea to try such a thing here. These are a few suggestion --
Question for that Trump fellow: you don't plan on ever releasing your tax returns unless forced to by law, do you? Question for that Trump fellow: you don't plan on ever having that press conference for Melania which you promised, do you? Question for that Trump fellow: you don't plan on every enacting the Russia sanctions that were passed almost-unanimously both by Houses of Congress, do you? Question for that Trump fellow: you don't plan on mentioning the 200,000 gallons of oil that spill from a leak in the Keystone Pipeline, do you? Question for that Trump fellow: you don't plan on ever doing anything to make sure there's not another gun massacre with 58 dead & 500 wounded, or 26 dead and 20 wounded, do you? Question for that Trump fellow: do you stand by by your comment that Roy Moore "sounds like a really great guy"? Question for that Trump fellow: what do you think about child molestation? Question for that Trump fellow: do you stand by your comment from several years back that you would date Ivanka if she wasn't your daughter? Question for that Trump fellow: you don't plan on really helping Puerto Rico anymore to get back their power or water, or help the people dying there, other than tossing rolls of paper towels, do you? Question for that Trump fellow: Can you name two "very fine people" who are neo-Nazis or white supremacists? Question for that Trump fellow: when you accused China of "raping" the U.S. but later said to their face that you didn't blame them, is that your position on all attacks or only economic ones? Question for that Trump fellow: do you believe the women who have accused Roy Moore of sexual assault? Question for that Trump fellow: why specifically shouldn't people believe the women who have accused you of sexual assault? Question for that Trump fellow: with your great memory, could you write down the date of when you married Ivana? Or Marla? Or your Social Security Number? Or your drivers license? Question for that Trump fellow: you don't plan on ever mentioning the disastrous wildfires in California that killed over 40, do you? Question for that Trump fellow: if you're so smart, perhaps you can show us your college transcript. Or at least tell us your GPA. Or SAT score. Question for that Trump fellow: how stupid and gullible do you think your base is that they believe you and would follow you if you shot someone on 5th Avenue? Question for that Trump fellow: If you read all these comments that came from the same person – "I'm very smart" "I give me 10 out of 10" "I have one of the world's best memories" “I alone can fix it” "I invented Priming the Pump" "I invented Fake News." -- and you knew nothing else about who said all of that, what would you think of the person? Other people have already submitted their answer.to this final question Yours will be compared to them – and graded on a curve.
