You rise some good points. However the name of the thread is slightly misleading as it sounds as if it's Trump who's being taunted, not the other way round.
It certainly seems in keeping with his character to behave in that way though. |

| Whenever the landline telephone rang, my min pin Benji would howl like anything. I'd call my Mom and if she didn't answer after a few rings I'd hear Benji howling like crazy in the background. He knew if it was a very short call that it was the visitor's intercom and someone would be visiting, but t... |

| TMM, I feel it's a pity that your Dad knows about your Facebook posts and that there's online stuff under your real name that he knows about and can use against you.

Elevators aka lifts aren't my favourite thing either, but I can live with them e g if not on my own.
There are usually stairs or a fire escape as a backup in case of power failure - in fact I haven't seen any buildings in my country in which an elevator is the only alternative. |
