You have to go to Slovenia to find a pro-American cake.

The media scrambled to verify the letter’s authenticity...

But a birth certificate of a presidential candidate...

Does anyone just make their own cakes at home these days?

A MAGA cake like that takes some skill. There are some non-pro bakers who can pull off amazing work. Then there are the rest of us...

In college I worked part time in a grocery store's deli/bakery. One of the tasks was to decorate birthday cakes. Nothing fancy: just writing on them with icing.

I didn't do half bad. Didn't do half good either :-P

Holy cow, you deserve some slack.

Carry on ...

While your “response” to the passing of Ted is somewhat ... morbid; I APPROVE wholeheartedly :-)

I wouldn’t trust a cake made by some liberal bakery.

Good point. These people are sick mofos and there's no telling what they would put in the cake. Their rabid hate against Trump and us makes them capable of adulterating the cake with anything up to and including poison.

The Gaystapo does not take it well when their hypocrisies are exposed.

Hey! That’s a nice cake, too! Who made that one? The hay cake the kid’s mom made was excellent!

[Rebelbase]

The kid is a regular Alex Keaton.

Freudian but True.

Read the letter. Mom and dad should spend some more time helping him with his schooling and less time on politics.

I might be out of line....but a nine year old knows so little about the real world. This is about the parents....not the kid...IMHO.

Maybe some of the same bakers would be open to baking a Mao cake.


Just make sure it shows lots of people being beaten to death to make it more historically accurate.

This cake doesn’t even say anything about Donald Trump!

[HiTech RedNeck]

I can’t think of why NO baker wanted to do it, unless they somehow feared that Donald Trump had a copyright on the slogan (which he doesn’t).

[Ciaphas Cain]

You would be surprised what a nine-year old would know.

When I was six and seven I was already reading about World War II and the Nazis, atmospheric pressure of Jupiter, and the politics of Yuri Andropov.

There are kids today who are more astute observers of the world than many adults. Don't let the messy penmanship fool you. That'll get better in time.

There is a lot to be hopeful for about the generations coming up behind the millenials. They're seeing the mess America is in. And they're going to be determined to do something about it. They already are.

This is true... lettering on a vertical surface.

That might actually have been a technical challenge to a trade where lettering is done on a horizontal surface.

On the other hand why can’t they just turn the thing in a suitable orientation for the lettering part? I don’t need an Einsteinian imagination to figure out how to do it, even if the head of the cap had to be constructed in two pieces.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Yep... some kids are encyclopedia nuts, etc. And that shouldn’t be squelched.
