I. Mangrey’s Holiday Four Play

World’s Greatest Loser. The Best.

“There are two man-made things that are visible from 50 miles up. One of course is the Great Wall of China and the other...Donald Trump’s hair.” – Joke performed by David Letterman in 2005, written by Johnny Carson

First he went after the Mexicans and many spoke out even though they were not Mexican. Then he went after women and many spoke out even though they were not women. Then he went after the handicapped and many spoke out even though they were not handicapped. Then he went after the Muslims and many spoke out even though they were not Muslim. Now he’s going after the Jews…what the hell took him so long?


Recently seen and more recently deleted tweet from Herr Chrumpler

Donald Chrump continues his Give America the Finger tour. Although he remains very busy retweeting white supremacist garbage, he is also in the process of finding a running mate. Thus far he had his hair set on being his own running mate to cut down on expenses and wasteful conversations with people who are not him. Word on the street is that he is looking at Chris Christie, Mike Pence and the ever pompous, thrice married (cheating on one wife while claiming Bill Clinton had no moral character during the Lewinsky affair), left-in-disgrace-because-of-ethics-violations ex-Speaker of the House Newton Leroy Gingrich.

Clearly the asshole doesn’t fall far from the tree. I guarantee.

Mr. Chrump’s Neighborhood
July 3, 2016 

Will Kaufman recently discovered never before published lyrics by Guthrie including some referring to Fred Chrump, Donald’s daddy. In December 1950, Woody Guthrie signed a lease at the Beach Haven apartment complex, landlorded over by the elder Chrump. According to Kaufman Woody was soon “lamenting the bigotry that pervaded his new, lily-white neighborhood,” the way Woody did:

I suppose
Old Man Trump knows
Just how much
Racial Hate he stirred up
In the bloodpot of human hearts
When he drawed
That color line
Here at his
Eighteen hundred family project
American patriot Woody Guthrie
 
(According to the Village Voice, Fred Trump's organization was sued by the the U.S. Justice Department's Civil Rights Division in 1973.)

Talk Is Cheap 

Chrump’s spokes-idiots are unable to speak for him or about any of his policies. I imagine trying to describe what Chrump is thinking or planning at any given moment is like trying to hold the wind, or more accurately freshly broken wind. Any time one of his greasy grifters is asked if their boss believes such-and-such or thinks this-or-that the response is, “I can’t speak for Mr. Chrump. You’ll have to ask him that yourself.”  

“Donald J. Chrump is calling for a complete shutdown on Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.” This we are told means that Chrump is not calling for a complete shutdown on Muslims entering the country, the problem is the media and the public misinterpreting his words. 

We just learned that Chrump is a recently born again Christian. Claims are being made that he did “accept a relationship with Christ.” Jesus could not be reached for comment as to whether or not he would accept a relationship with The Don. Given that Jesus was a known socialist, what with his palling around with prostitutes, lepers, the meek and the poor, chasing the money lenders from the temple and all that – not to mention all those nice Jewish boys with whom he was so “close”, there is a certain degree of surprise that Chrump would want to be in a committed relationship with a guy like that, but hey it is an election year. So in some way it makes perfect sense; he told us in February – “Nobody reads the Bible more than me.” I’m sure he will make an excellent Christian as soon as he stops fantasizing about having incest with his daughter and stops divorcing everyone he marries. After all, he is a man of his word…well, maybe not his word, but he is a man of somebody’s word. If Chrump is a good Christian, then I am the walrus. Goo goo gajoob. And nobody reads Atlas Shrugged more than me.

Who is Who? More Importantly, Why?
At The Circus
July 2, 2016
Hillary Clinton changed a number of positions faster than you can say Mitt Romney. She parroted everything Bernie Sanders said on the campaign trail as though she believed just about everything he did. She assumed positions she had never taken before on a host of issues. Hillary must have been doing a lot of political yoga before she started campaigning. She knew she was in a fight she never expected to be in and she knew that Bernie was killin’ it. So she tried to out-Bernie Bernie. Time will tell if she is Bernie enough to win the White House in November.
Now the shoe is on the other fool. But there is a twist. Chrump, rather than parroting Hillary’s position on the issues, has turned the whole thing upside down. In his fevered conspiracy-theory driven delirium, Chrump is accusing Hillary of essentially being him. The “most corrupt person ever to run for president”. Check. A “world class liar”. Check. Failed at everything she has done. Check. He said ISIS dreams of Hillary becoming president. Check. And just to put the assing on the cake he called Elizabeth Warren a fraud and a racist (immediately after once again tarring her with the racist epithet "Pocahontas"). He just can’t help himself…or us.

Confronted with the fact that Hillary called him the king of debt Chrump quickly shot back, “No, I called myself the King of Debt. I’m the King of Debt. I’m great with debt. Nobody knows debt better than me. I made a fortune using debt.”* He may or may not have added, “Hillary is the king of losing. Nobody loses more than her. She is the king. I promise you. Nobody goes bankrupt more than Corrupt Hillary. Nobody rips off more contractors, customers or investors. She’s just the worst. I can tell you. Believe me. And her hands are so small. She has very small hands. She is the worst of the worst. I am the best you will ever see. Vote Chrump or we all die. It’s not me saying that. Many people are telling me this. Many people. I would never say that.”

He did say of Hillary Clinton (in between spewing long-ago-debunked conspiracy theories): “I will never say this…but she screams it drives me crazy. I didn’t say it. I can’t listen.”* Really? He can’t listen because of her screaming? If only there was some kind of technology, some way for Donald to hear his own voice, like some kind of mirror for sounds. He clearly has not figured out how to use the mirror that works for seeing; what else could explain his hair? If Chrump could somehow listen to his own voice he might come to realize that his voice makes Hillary sound like Ella Fitzgerald.

I Will Never Say This…
It would be exceedingly rude to call Chrump a lying sack of shit. That is why I will do no such thing. Frankly I am apalled that so many thousands of people all over the world are calling him a lying sack of shit. Perhaps they have exhaustive and incontrovertible proof of him lying over and over and over about just about every subject under the sun. I still don’t think that makes it right to call Donald J. Chrump a lying sack of shit. How anyone would be so cruel, however honest, about a “tiny fingered, Cheeto-faced, ferret wearing shitgibbon” is beyond me.

Campaign Cock Tool
July 1, 2016
He Has the Best Endorsers
People Chrump says are 100% with him include a number of notables, many of whom are apparently unaware that they support him any%. Of course we already know (because he keeps telling us so that we will think it’s really true) that the blacks love him. And nobody is better with women than Chrump (he told us that too, though most women seem completely unaware of how much they love him). Also the Muslims and Hispanics are going to vote for him in yuuuuuuuge numbers (at the self-loathers will). But what about specific people? Some names that stand out are boxing promoter Don King who seems to have said he supports Chrump and then not, Steelers quarterback and occasional rape suspect Ben Roethlisbeger – also unaware that he supports Chrump 100. Add to these the burgeoning laundry list of Republican’t governors, senators and congress-people hoping to keep their jobs and now treating Chrump as a political leper. Many people are saying that Chrump will announce other high-profile 100% endorsements next week including Bruce Springsteen, Tommy Smothers, Benjamin Franklin, Noam Chomsky, Antonin Scalia, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, Barack Obama and Bernie Sanders. They all love him. Don’t you? And Chrump just tweeted that Helen Keller told him personally that she supports him. What? Too soon?
Chrump’s campaign manager and defender of despots the world over Paul Manafort told Chuck Todd on Meet the Press, “The good thing is, we have a candidate who doesn’t need to figure out what’s going on in order to say what he wants to do.” The first true words to come out of the Chrump campaign – true…but stupid. This candidate had no idea what Brexit was until a day or two before the referendum even though he was planning to be in Scotland (to hawk the grand re-opening of his golf course, because that’s what presidents do) the morning after the vote. Oh, and even though he claims to be running for president. Once he heard about it he thought it was a great idea, and after the pound took an historic nosedive said, “I don’t think it will affect me personally that much.” Whew. While in Scotland Sir Donald of Orange crowed about what a great thing Brexit was. Scotland voted to remain in the EU 63% to 37%. You Brexit, you bought it.

Scotland responds to Chrump’s take on Brexit

International Man of Misery
Some of Chrump’s most ardent supporters seem to be supporters of ISIS. According to a counterterrorism analyst, “It’s clear they find his comments, they find his demeanor, they find his approach, in some way serving the goals of ISIS…” His hatred and bigotry fuel theirs quite nicely. Heck of a job Chrumpy. Not to be swayed by, or in any way familiar with the facts Chrump said of ISIS, "They want her to get in so badly. They have dreams at night, and their dreams are that Hillary Clinton becomes president of our country." I got nothin’.
