Enlist a friend. Wear shoes too big ( or small), bundle up good.
Prepare your replacement words ahead of time, backed with masking or double sided tape.
Walk the dog past everything for a few days , scope it out. Encourage Fido to do his bidniss in front of sign, be a dutiful neighbor pick it up and slap your replacement words on as you do so. Wear gloves. It wouldn’t hurt the sign to get a little more shitty.
YW.

How can any interview with him be called "exclusive?" He is desperate to appear on any media. You would have to keep him away from an interview with a baseball bat.

Nethanyu did not want to speak with a loser ? Who would have thought that an active parliamentarier would still be inerested in contact with a retired person (don't want to attribute the term politician to that former resident of the WH).

The man is truely delusional, but then, we all know that.
He thinks that everyone in the world owes him personal loyalty, while he owes them nothing.
Just as he thought that Congress worked for him, personally, he does not understand the concept of national sovereignty. Netanyahu owes his loyalty first, last and always, exclusively to the nation of Israel. I'm no fan of Bibi, but he is not and should not be Trump's lackey, as TFG seems to think.

Re: trump (the former guy)
What is scary is that it sounds like he expected world leaders to rise up and reject the Biden presidency kinda how like the US will decide if a leader of some 3rd world country is legitimate or not and restrict their access to things like foreign assets.

If'n he wanted that to happen, perchance he should have been civil, maybe even friendly, toward our long-term allies, just for starters.

Re: trump (the former guy)
Has that ever worked when the US tried it? Has any country, faced with the US threatening (or actually) to not recognize their newly elected leader, backed down and said "Oh, well, if the US doesn't like it, we'll just have to elect someone else"?
I'm not saying that it is a bad policy, but, even when a country with the size and both military and economic clout of the US can't convince a banana republic to overturn their elections, how can anyone expect the tactic to work on us?

Iran, 1953. That worked out great, long term.
Plus, we totally did it, time and again, all over Central America. The term "Banana Republic" comes from the fact that United Fruit Corporation (Chiquita Banana people) determined who the new General-President-Dictator was going to be, not the people of Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras, Nicaragua or Belize.

Re: trump (the former guy)
Has Asshole offered one word of condolence to the Dole family upon the death of 98 year old former Senator and Republican Presidential nominee Bob Dole? IIRC Dole endorsed him. Twice.
Many of you may dislike Dole but I am sad to see all the WWII vets passing away. My Dad was a WWII vet who lived well into his nineties, though did not reach the great age of 98.
Until Dole's death this week, half of the contenders in the 1976 Presidential race were still alive. Jimmy soldiers on. Our longest living ex-President.

Re: trump (the former guy)
I disliked some of Dole's politics, but he himself never gave the impression of being anything other than a lovely man when I saw him in a personal capacity. Rest in peace.

Washington (CNN)Bob Dole, the longtime US senator from Kansas and 1996 Republican presidential nominee, said that while he is still "a Trumper," he is "sort of Trumped out," in an interview published Thursday by USA Today.
Dole also said he believes former President Donald Trump lost the 2020 presidential election and noted that there is no evidence of election fraud, contrary to Trump's repeated claims.
"He lost the election, and I regret that he did, but they did," Dole told USA Today's Susan Page. "He had Rudy Giuliani running all over the country, claiming fraud. He never had one bit of fraud in all those lawsuits he filed and statements he made."
Dole is among the most prominent members of the Republican establishment who has stood by Trump. He endorsed Trump for President in 2016 and hasn't engaged in the public criticism levied by other living past GOP presidential nominees George W. Bush and Mitt Romney. Dole has also plainly recognized Joe Biden's legitimacy as President.

Re: trump (the former guy)
DFO transaction way of looking at the world is not really transactional. You can do him a bunch of favors, and support him for years, while he only does one. After all that, if you don't agree with him or not support him on one issue he wants, you are disloyal and have always been that way. He will go on about how he helped you and you did nothing.

That’s why he said “There’s no quid pro quo.”
With him, there never is, that’s how narcissists roll.

Re: trump (the former guy)
Same with him saying "I barely knew [him/her]" about people he worked with extensively.
He's not lying, actually. He barely knows Melanie, which is why he got her name wrong once. He barely knows anybody at all, because nobody matters to him except him. So he never bothers to find out what others think or feel, and he knows nothing about the people he hires except how obsequious they are. I bet he has less time total with his son Barron (little known fact, he almost named him Barack ) than I've spent re-screening my back porch this fall.
If he's in favor of someone, he'll say "great guy" but it has to be based on what that person did for Trump. And when the great guy inevitably falls out of favor, further on down the road, he finally admits: "I barely knew him." Because he doesn't know anyone well besides himself.

Statement from President Carter on Sen. Bob Dole
Dec. 5, 2021
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Rosalynn and I are deeply saddened to learn of the death of former Sen. Robert Dole. A true leader, Bob was willing to work across political parties to make progress on important issues. He showed that our differences need not divide us, but can foster effective answers to our nation’s most difficult problems. His unrelenting efforts enriched the lives of countless people in need, including military personnel, veterans, and their caregivers. We extend our condolences to his wife, Elizabeth, their family, and friends.
You can't wait until life isn't hard anymore before you decide to be happy.
Re: trump (the former guy)
Also if he perceives someone as a strong man he will do anything to get on the side of that strong man as he thinks it makes him an important man. See Putin, but also Kim, Murdoch, Turkeys dictator, etc. Murdoch is said to have said it this way - DFO sucks up, and punches down.
