WASHINGTON, D.C. — In an effort to bring people together, president-elect Donald Trump has planned a special surprise for his inauguration day, January 20th. Every outlet that sells ice cream, from Baskin-Robbins to the corner gas station, will be participating in Free Ice Cream Day. Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway (and her husband) announced the new annual holiday on CNN this morning.
Not only will every American receive a free ice cream bar, but Trump has declared January 20th to be an international holiday. Ms. Conway said that any country choosing to participate will be considered friends of the new administration.
Ms. Conway went on to say that: “We want everyone to celebrate on inauguration day, no matter who they voted for. Get a free ice cream at your nearest local store, then join your friends and family in watching history take place. Donald Trump will be the best president ever and we will all benefit for the next four years, starting on January 20th. Free Ice Cream Day is just the beginning.”
Ms. Conway’s husband will be one of the street vendors in Washington on inauguration day. He said he’ll be selling Trump novelty items, like a pink, frilly apron that says, “Trump This, Daddy.” Also among the items for sale by Ms. Conway’s husband is a coffee mug that states, “I Am The Man.”
CNN also reported that some countries have already agreed to participate in Free Ice Cream Day, including Scotland, Germany, and North Vietnam. No word yet from Russia.

You can always give your ice cream to someone special. Do you have a pet? 🙂

Nope…no pets and I don’t get out very much anyway and I never frequent ice cream places. Now if they were giving away free vegetables….I’d be in!

A Flake in UK is a phallic symbol in the form of a stick of chocolate that stands up in the ice cream

You made that up, you crafty Brit. Google showed me that a Flake is a candy bar by Cadbury. And oh my goodness, does it look good. We don’t have it here, or at least I’ve never seen it.
“Since 1922 in Britain, Australia, South Africa and Ireland ice cream vendors serve “99 Flakes” which are vanilla soft serve ice cream in a wafer cone in which a half size Flake bar is inserted in the top. Screwballs are similar but have a plastic cone rather than a wafer.”
I’m having heart palpitations. 🙂

Great idea from the master of social media: THIS will heal the divide. Who wouldn’t respond positively to a free ice cream bar? (um, me) Even free ice cream for the next four years wouldn’t change my opinion or assuage my fears. I need to see how he LEADS, not how he buys people off with PR gestures.
Hey – THIS might do it for ME: how about free FOOD for the next four years for each person under a certain income level, free medications for below poverty-line seniors, subsidized housing for the homeless and disabled, and an increase in free psychiatric programs for Vets with PTSD and their families, and . . .
Oh wait, I forgot. Those billions are already pledged to building the Great Wall of America and inciting a return to the vaccine wars. Gotta’ keep those priorities straight!

Hot fudge sundae or nothin….unless they’re Dove bars in dark chocolate, of course.
Excuse me, but all I can see when I look at your photo is meat. Is that meat, or is it that when I look at it, I see meat?
This piece needs to be published in The Onion. I bet they would publish it. It’s a great satire piece! Go Johnna!

What you’re looking at is a sundae. It’s an Oreo Klondike with Hershey’s syrup. I’m curious, what kind of meat do you see?

Ice cream and meat are equally good. I know I like me some juicy meat once in awhile, when I can afford it. Haven’t had a cheeseburger in some time, but it’s been on my mind (and in my dreams). 🙂
