The Swamp is Draining Chrump

Telling Chrump From Shinola

May 24, 2017

A Chrump advisor told Politico, “He doesn’t really know any boundaries. He doesn’t think in those terms…He doesn’t sometimes understand the implications of what he’s saying.” Talk about understatement.

Pop Quiz:
Who said, “We can’t have someone in the Oval Office who doesn’t understand the meaning of the word ‘confidential’ or ‘classified.’”

          a) James Comey, one-time director of the FBI, fired from his job for doing his job
          b) Dick Cheney, former vice president/president, in reference to either George W. Bush or Barack Obama – sources are unsure and/or afraid to reveal which one
          c) Richard Nixon, disgraced ex-president, after five too many scotches
          d) Donald Chrump, who clearly does not know the meaning of ‘confidential’, ‘classified’, or any other word of greater than four letters, while on the campaign trail and constantly whining about Clinton’s emails, which were neither confidential nor classified, unlike the ‘highly classified’ information he passed on to Russian spies in the Oval Office.
          e) The answer is ‘d’, as if you didn’t know.  

Post Chrump Stress Disorder

During Chrump’s scorched earth campaign he said, “Hillary Clinton is unfit and unqualified to be the president of the United States. If Hillary is elected, she would be under protracted criminal investigation likely followed by the trial of a sitting president. That’s just what we need. The investigation will last a year, nothing will get done, the government will grind to a halt, and our country will continue to suffer.”  I must admit the scenario does sound oddly familiar. I cannot put my finger on it, but I am sure it will come to me.

There is great uncertainty in the West Wing as a result of all the investigations – Congress, the Senate, FBI, special prosecutor – who can keep up. Who is a person of interest, who is a suspect? Who will be FIRED? Nobody could have anticipated that a cadre of conmen, conspiracy aficionados and greedy bastards taking over the reins of power might wind up (or start out) running afoul of the law and possibly even the media. Rumors of major a shake-up in the White House abound as the wheels fall off the Access Chrumpywood bus. Will Reince Preibus be shown the door, or worse yet be forced to see Chrump naked? Will Steve Bannon be forced to remain Steve Bannon? Will Sean Spicer be sent on a one-way, all-expenses-paid cruise and fitted with cement slippers? Will Jared be able to bring peace to the Middle East, make great deals with China, revamp the federal government and the criminal justice system, solve the opioid crisis and keep his criminally insane father-in-law out of jail? Will Julian Assange replace Mike Pence? Will Donald finally marry Ivanka? The most stunning gossip in the beltway has it that Jared Kushner is planning to fire Donald Chrump. Stay tuned for the exciting conclusion, which will hopefully be very soon.

Speaking of which, many members of Chrump's staff infection worry their jobs will soon disappear. As one aide said, "The president goes through moods where sometimes he wants to blow everything up..." So this might be over sooner than we think...but not in the way we might like.
