of his ugly, old, sagging face on the bottom of the pool? He thinks he is a Greek or Roman God so of course this must include a massive mosaic of tiles made with fake gold at the foundation of his bigly pool! Hell, he is a god, isn't he?

He is a dictator but that is not a good thing. I'm sure this plan is in the works right now! He is worse than Stalin, Caligula, and Hitler combined.
