August 30, 2019: Trump Keeps Breaking Assorted Commandments

 

8/30/19: A massive hurricane, gathering strength over unusually warm waters in the Atlantic, is bearing down on Florida. 

It has already sideswiped Puerto Rico, which gave Trump an excuse to call the Mayor of San Juan “incompetent” again. And that is how you offer aid and comfort to people in the path of a killer storm! 

As of Friday, at 11:00 a.m., it is predicted that Hurricane Dorian will make landfall as a Category 4 storm, striking Palm Beach County, Florida a direct hit. Palm Beach County is home to Mar-a-Lago, the true love of Trump’s life. Not that we wish harm on the people of Florida. But if Dorian takes out Trump’s place, you wonder if Evangelicals might see it as a sign of God’s wrath, directed against a man who has broken these commandments with delight: 

FOURTH: Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant … 

This would cut into Trump’s time to play golf – and also the time undocumented workers that his clubs have hired spend making the beds, grooming the greens, etc., at his private courses.

 

SEVENTH: Thou shalt not commit adultery. 

Too late.

 

EIGHTH: Thou shalt not steal. 

Much too late.

 

NINTH: Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. 

Lost cause!

 

TENTH: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor’s. 

Pussy grabbing; Trump University; Trump Foundation busted for scamming two million dollars, etc.

Trump probably couldn’t pick Tiffany out of a crowd. 

WE ALSO LEARN that White House staffer Madeleine Westerhout has left the building for good. During an off-the-record discussion with reporters in a Washington D.C. bar, Westerhout, whose post had been right outside Trump’s door, had one drink too many. Or four. 

She bragged that she had a better relationship with the president than his daughters. As for Tiffany, Westerhout laughed, her father couldn’t pick her out of a crowd. She said that Trump did not like to be seen in photographs with his youngest daughter, because he thought she looked fat. 

Trump was said to have grown fond Westerhout, an attractive 28-year-old. Now that she was being relieved of her duties, there seemed to be concern about what she might say about how Trump behaves behind closed doors.



"Hi, Dad, it's me."


 

That meant…time for a presidential tweet: 

While Madeleine Westerhout has a fully enforceable confidentiality agreement she is a very good person and I don’t think there would ever be reason to use it. She called me yesterday to apologize, had a bad night. I fully understood and forgave her! I love Tiffany, doing great!

 

Yes, a fully enforceable confidentially agreement, which of course there would be no reason ever to enforce! 

Didn’t Trump say Michael Cohen was a “very good person” some time back?
