Title: Mugabe Resigns !!!!
Post by: Scout26 on November 21, 2017, 01:34:21 PM
Just came across the radio.  Mugabe was facing impeachment proceedings in the Zimbabwe parliament, so he pulled a Nixon.

Once I find a link to the story, I'll update this post.

I saw he had been under house arrest for a while. Hopefully they send his crazy wife packing as well. I think he had set her up as his replacement.

My son is starting a coin collection.  He has been begging for a $100,000,000,000 Zimbabwe bill.

I want one too but they don't give those away.

100 trillion bills go for $60-100 USD on ebay.

I imagine Zimbabwe will continue more or less along the same path it's been on since Mugabe took over - a few more generations, and it will be nearly indistinguishable from what it was when imperialistic Britishers like Cecil Rhodes arrived.
