I first got exposed to the Magic 8 BallTM fortune-telling toy during the late 70s and early 80s, when I was a teen. The neato question-answering sphere had first become popular in the 1950s before I was even a glint in my daddy's eye.
To use the Magic 8 BallTM , you follow the same pattern Sheriff Woody demonstrated in the Toy Story movie. Anxious over whether Andy would bring him or Buzz Lightyear to Pizza Planet, Sheriff Woody whispered a yes-or-no question: "Will Andy pick me?" Then he shook up the 8 ball and waited for the answer to rise up to the small screen. Alas, the 8 ball said: "Don't count on it."
The Magic 8 BallTM offers a total of 20 different answers, 10 of which are positive, five of which are neutral, and five of which are negative. The 20 answers appear on this top ten list and the previous one. Geometry lovers may be interested to know the inner cube of the 8 ball is a 20-sided object called an icosahedron.
Anyway, I thought it might be fun to imagine what types of responses might appear on a Trump-themed Magic 8 BallLOL . Would it be entertaining to ask a yes-or-no question, shake up the sphere, and watch as one of Donald J. Trump's brilliant answers rises to the top? Let's find out!
For example, you could ask "Mr. President, when will the war be over?" Then you'd shake up the Trump Magic 8 BallLOL and get the definitive DJT answer: "Let me check with the Iranahedron."
