And then we can sue the GOP for beating me,... and then we can sue the Russians for the collusion with me,.... I’m mean the election. By doing so, I believe this can be make our party more solvent and avoid bankruptcy.

See,.. problem solved,... I’m a problem solver and I would have made a wonderful president, if it wasn’t for the dammed American citizens,

Yes, I feel it was neccesary to go on this book tour to promote my new book “A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership”, because I really feel this really is the best way to grind my axe for getting fired.

Motivational Speaker Mouse.... Coming to your town, Soon.

Here is a sample what Motivational Speaker Mouse will be talking about....

"I'm telling you, its all in Positive Motivation.

I used to live in a van.... Down by the River,... with this fat guy that never shuts up,... If I can do it,... So can you.

You just have to keep your whiskers to the grind stone... and sooner or later,... you'll get some ground corn"
