President Chrump held a press tantrum yesterday, fielding
some hard-earned abuse from the media he continues to disparage at every turn. Chrump
pointed out, as no one else would or would ever have to, “I’m not ranting and
raving.” And that in a nutshell is the best we can possibly hope for.
Am I winning or what?
Chrump called the impromptu snit to announce his second
choice for Labor Secretary, after his first choice Andy Pudzer cut and run in
the face of mounting opposition to his nomination merely because he despised
workers and fair wages and assaulted his wife who once appeared in disguise on
the Oprah Winfrey show to discuss the allegations, which Pudzer denied.
Senators got to view the Winfrey tape thanks to Oprah and decided that they
might prefer another option beside Pudzer.
The Conflater-in-chief shifted effortlessly between
delusion, lie and utter nonsense as he attacked the press, the intelligence
community and Hillary Clinton. Despite overwhelming and irrefutable evidence to
the contrary he lied, “I’m here today to update the American people on the
incredible progress that’s been made the last four weeks since my inauguration.
I see stories of chaos. It’s the exact opposite. This administration is running
like a fine-tuned machine.” This administration is not even running like a Rube
Goldberg machine. This administration could not even be compared to the Titanic
– the Titanic started out afloat.
Chrump went on to brag about all the things he has done in
such a short period of time. He has surely hit the ground running –
unfortunately his first step seems to have planted firmly on a giant banana
peel. Almost every “achievement” he listed was actually something he un-did –
backed out of this agreement, eliminated those regulations, a moratorium on
regulations, a hiring freeze on federal workers. He still has not found Obama’s
birth certificate or filled Guantanamo Bay, eliminated Obamacare or locked
Hillary up, or defeated ISIS so quickly with his beautiful plan that was better
than the generals had. The Republican’t Senate however did manage to pass one
very important law – well again, not so much pass a law as block an Obama-era
regulation meant to prevent some 75,000 people with mental disorders from
owning guns. Priorities. Insanities. Guns.
Chrump insisted that the media was to blame for him firing
Mike Flynn. Chrump announced Flynn’s replacement the day before only to have
him decline the offer presumably because of concerns that the Chrump
administration was too fine-tuned.
There was some good news though; we can heave a sigh of
relief knowing that Chrump finally found out that nuclear war is bad because
his security briefings have taught him that “nuclear holocaust would be like no
other.” Whew.
Chrump displayed his unique sense of humor saying, “To be
honest, I inherited a mess.” I cannot decide which part of that statement is
funnier. He has not made a more amusing statement regarding what he inherited
since telling us, “It has not been easy for me. I started off in Brooklyn. My
father gave me a small loan of a million dollars.” This guy knows how to tickle
the collective funny bone.
Meanwhile, Russia is taunting the Child-in-chief to keep up
the façade of. First they launched a treaty-breaking missile, then they sent a
spy ship to thumb its nose off the east coast. Chrump repeatedly barked, “Not
good” as a reporter ticked off the infractions, finally managing to put
together more than two words in response, “The greatest thing I could do is
shoot that ship that’s 30 miles offshore right out of the water. Everyone in
the country would say, ‘Oh that’s so great.’” Who among us cannot say that we
long for a shooting war with Russia?
