July 21-23, 2017: President Trump Drops the P-Word

 

7/21/17: For those of us who enjoy mocking the Trump administration this is a black day. Press Secretary Sean Spicer, who often left reporters and those watching on TV in stunned disbelief, resigns. According to friends “Spicey” wearied of insults hurled by the president. 

His replacement, Anthony Scaramucci, explains the president’s real problem to reporters. He’s “doing a phenomenal job,” Scaramucci insists, “and we just need to get it out there a little more aggressively.” 

No problem. Scaramucci, “The Mooch,” is on the job!  

Meanwhile, Federal Aviation Administration records indicate Trump is planning on spending August 3-20 at his home/golf course in Bedminster. As for Congress, he still thinks legislators should remain in session and get a healthcare bill on his desk quick. (See: 7/21/17.) 

Can Congress just mail the bill to Bedminster?

7/22/17: The president rolls out of bed just after 5:30 a.m. in his Wonder Woman pajamas and gets down to the business of governing! He warms up by attacking The New York Times and Washington Post in a tweet. 

Why do these papers keep insisting the Russian investigation matters! (See pretty much everything above: 7/8-14/17, etc.)

At 6:35 he gets to the meat of the matter. No one in his administration has ever seen a Russian, touched a Russian, talked to a Russian, heard a Russian offer to fatten a bank account, or smelled a Russian fart. But if they did – are you listening Don Jr. and Jared – don’t worry. 

Trump tweets: “While all agree the U.S. President has the complete power to pardon, why think of that when only crime so far is LEAKS against us. FAKE NEWS.” 

The pardon power, yeah, why would anyone think about that?

7/23/17: Another Sunday tweetstorm brews up in Trumpistan. Rap, tap, tap, go the presidential digits on the keys to his iPhone: “As the phony Russian Witch Hunt continues, two groups are laughing at this excuse for a lost election taking hold, Democrats and Russians.” 

“It’s very sad that Republicans, even some that were carried over the line on my back, do very little to protect their President [emphasis added]”  

Fortunately, there’s real news to report – that is, any news that makes Orange Leader feel good, even when he looks in a mirror and realizes his hair makes it seem like he has a dead fox sitting atop his cranium. Tappity-tap-tap: “Thank you to @LOUDOBBS for giving the first six months of the Trump Administration an A+. S.C.,reg cutting,Stock M, jobs,border etc. = TRUE!”
