59. My Irish grandmother used to say about a bad person: "The Devil won't have him."

Monday

Shaking her head in disgust.

Someone so bad, he is not even fit for hell.

My Irish grandmother was a happy go lucky type, merry, good humor, etc.
So I knew someone had to be quite bad for her to go into a dark scowl and
say he was so bad the devil rejected him.

I keep thinking about that statement and Trump.
