Four more years of fun and roses

Political discussion, and the speaker was talking sarcastically about if Trump is re-elected, it will be four more years of fun and roses. This is a congruent conflation of “fun and games” and ” days of wine and roses”, both describing a happy time. “A bed of roses” might also be in the mix. The speaker could have been thinking of Guns N’ Roses, considering guns rhymes with fun. A big thanks to John Kooser for hearing this one and sening it in.
