Home Alone

You may find this hard to believe, but I spent most of last
night very carefully not watching the latest episode of As The Stomach Turns, starring the reality-president Donald Chrump.
Last night’s installment, entitled Hate Of
The Union, though dwarfed in the ratings by Jimmy Kimmel’s interview with
then-not-yet-president Chrump’s $130K-hushed sleepover buddy Stormy Daniels,
was watched live by dozens of people with nothing better to do and/or
non-functioning remote controls.
I had something better to do last night. I was busy staring
intently at my living room wall. Not the one with all the artwork on it, but
the empty one with nothing but an off-white coat or two of paint. And no, I was
not watching the paint dry. It dried long ago. It just seemed that this would
be a much more productive use of my time at that moment.
The Orange Gas Cloud no doubt had his meds adjusted to the
appropriate level that allowed him to spend a few precious moments neither
tweeting, waving his pecker while screaming at his staff, stuffing cheeseburgers
into his face-sphincter, paying off porn stars, or insulting anyone and
everyone. I’m sure he spent those few minutes standing in front of both Houses
of Congress – sans those who decided they too would make better use of their
time, Supreme Court Justices – minus Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who apparently had a “scheduling
conflict”, assorted guests and possibly even Melania Chrump, who was unable to
be called away on urgent business at the last moment, due to her contractual
obligations with her “husband”.
I have it on good authority that Der Furor spent a good deal
of time taking credit for the Obama economy that he inherited and the sky-rocketing
Stock Market Obama left him (which by the way had its worst day in quite some
time, losing 362 points on the day of Chrump’s SOTU), and threatening North
Korea, Iran, some number of shithole countries. He no doubt pretended to be a
uniter and not a hateful, racist, woman-hating conman. I guess you can teach an
old pig new tricks.
Chrump did not mention the fact that he just blew off
sanctions on Russia, his affair and subsequent hush money with a porn star, his
unrelenting campaign of obstruction of justice, or what he will be wearing to
his impeachment. He failed to mention that FEMA had suddenly
stopped supplying emergency food and water to Puerto Rico today. I’m not sure why he left out all of this juicy material, but
surely it will come out in due time. Chrump somehow managed to avoid any
shout-outs to Nazis or the KKK. Bravo, Mr. Chrump.
Hopefully, you too managed to avoid subjecting yourself to
the so-called-presidential stylings of Commander-in-chief #45. I admit that I did
watch the lead-up and saw footage of quite a few people lining the route of Der
Furor’s motorcade, holding signs and giving #45 two alternative thumbs up as
the phalanx of vehicles made its way to Capitol Hill.
I did not make it down to DC for the big night, but I would be remiss
if I did not give Chrump two alternative thumbs up on his big night
if I did not give Chrump two alternative thumbs up on his big night
I. Mangrey repulsed.
