U.S. President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama served traditional Thanksgiving food at the Armed Forces Retirement Home. The Home is an independent agency in the Executive branch and provides residences and related services to retired members of the Armed Forces. This is the final Thanksgiving that Obama will mark as President of the United States.

Sure, it’s a photo-op, a darned good one by the way, and all things considered I’m going to miss him and his family.

Also yesterday,President-elect Trump and family spent Thanksgiving at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club in Florida. Their six option main course menu reportedly included “Mr. Trump’s Wedge Salad,” and a three layer “Trump chocolate cake,” dessert.

Trump, they say, will be hard at work today and for the coming weeks is planning to hold  a series of large ‘victory rallies’ as some supporters have already been doing. Okay, there’s the circuses — where’s the bread?
