Watching Sesame Street with our daughter way too many years ago, my favorite segment was called, “One of these is not like the others.”  While Ernie or one of the other Muppets sang the following lyrics, they would show three or four images and ask, “Which thing is not like the others?”

One of these things is not like the others
One of these things just doesn’t belong
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

I thought about Sesame Street this weekend as we once again had to endure Donald Trump’s pettiness and inhumanity when the news broke of the death of Senator John McCain.  To remind us Trump is an aberration of what the presidency once was and hopefully will be again, I have created my own version of “One of these is not like the others.” [NOTE:  To see a higher resolution version of each picture, click on it.]

Honoring John McCain:

Visiting Troops in a War Zone:

Attending a Spiritual Event:

Community Service:

In the Oval Office:

There is an alternative version of the song which goes like this.

Three of these things belong together
Three of these things are kind of the same
Can you guess which one of these doesn’t belong here?
Now it’s time to play our game (time to play our game)

Did you guess correctly?  I knew you could.  If only it was just a game.

For what it’s worth.
