NEW YORK CITY -- Republican Party presidential candidate Donald Trump says he didn't endorse the support of former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard David Duke on television. He now says he thought he was being asked a question about Daisy Duke, the queen of the cut off-jeans in the 1970s.

Jake Tapper of CNN pressed Trump, as he would any Republican on the eve of a huge election date, to volunteer that he did not want the votes of some of his backers. But Trump repeatedly evaded the request, at one point saying, "I know nothing about David Duke; I know nothing about white supremacists." Trump did describe Duke as a "Klansman" in 2000 when Duke and Trump were potential Presidential rivals. But that was a long time ago, as is most everything else for the 69-year-old casino magnate.

Trump said he was "set up" with a faulty ear piece whilst being interviewed on CNN. He thought he had heard that "Daisy Duke" was supporting him and remembered her very well on the reality show Dukes of Hazzard.

"I am all for feisty women like Daisy Duke supporting my campaign," said Trump. "She knows when she's picked a winner and as the recent primaries have proved, I have plenty of support in the South. So when I heard the surname "Duke," I though it was her instead of David Duke. Heck, does it matter? I am going to make America great for everyone, Daisy and David alike. I can't describe how great, you'll see. Isn't he the one that was her cousin with the hopped-up Chevy?"

Trump then tweeted that he did know Duke and had disavowed Duke's support all along, just like a Bill Clinton "apology." But it was too late. House Speaker Paul Ryan called out Trump, saying that Trump should show good faith with a payment of $3 billion toward anti-racism efforts, or by giving back one large Primary state. Sen. Jeff Sessions, expected to support conservative ally Ted Cruz, issued a surprise endorsement of Trump. "We need to stand togethah against the Nigrah," he said. The Democratic Party had no statement on the flap, as it has not been the same since the passing of Senate leader and Grand Kleagle Robert Byrd.

Trump claimed that he received text message support from the "Duke of Downton Abbey" in England and that the Duke of Edinburgh was "right behind me."

Zimbabwe -- President Robert Mugabe marked his 92nd birthday here by throwing an $800,000 party in a drought-stricken area. The move was panned as "an affront to ordinary Zimbabweans" by critics — none of whom were ordinary Zimbabweans, who know better.

The party was attended by members of the ruling ZANU-PF party, the ZANU-PF youth wing, and thousands of ZANU-PF supporters, who sang songs hailing Mugabe as a visionary icon. The President, who has been in office for the entire 35 years of Zimbabwe's independence, ate a cake shaped like the ancient ruins for which Zimbabwe was named, rather than the modern ruins it has become.

Masvingo has lost 75% of its maize crop to drought, and some of the ZANU-PF officials jockeying to be in the right place if Mugabe should keel over rather than stage yet another show election, whispered that some of the $800,000 would have been better spent importing food to avert imminent starvation. Mugabe, however, said that the party was the best thing for the drought, as the punch bowl was also of historic proportions.

Mugabe has appealed for $1,600 million of foreign aid, which would take the place of the previous batch that got diverted to fund his personal protective services. However, he said Western countries insisted that Zimbabwe accept gay marriages, an unacceptable condition that would render the aid "rotten and filthy."

No aid organization is known to have attached such a condition to assistance, but these days, one can hardly blame Mugabe for thinking they had. Sadly, everyone who knows how to adapt to a drought has either emigrated, been killed, or is in prison for the crime of Farming While White.

International observers said that such a spectacle of devoted followers deliriously praising a leader despite a spotty past and policies for the future sure to be lethal to the extent that anyone can pin them down, could never happen in the West — neither in the Republican nor the Democratic Party.
 
All those lunches and dinners...how about some dessert? The coconut pineapple frosting turned out gloppier than I would have liked, but a good Mt. Dew bundt cake can still do the trick when the munchies kick in. Would be a good one to infuse with a little canna-coconut oil as well (though this one is just a normal cake).

Good Morning Stoners!!
Mornin' Bear!
What's the buzz?!?
Hanging in the living room having my morning cuppa! MMmmm! Any coffee nuts out there? How do you make your coffee, how do you drink it?

I have a Breville grinder and do a pour over style with Hario # 6 filters poured from a Bonavita electric kettle. I us Vermont Coffee "Tres" beans ground very fine, 1st setting before espresso. I use a scale to weigh the water. I use cream and sugar too, sugar in the raw with some half and half and a shot of heavy cream. It's like desert for brekky!!
