It is absolutely astounding to me that our elected president
was apparently involved in colluding with Russian intelligence and we haven’t
burned him and his crew at the stake. Is
this a bit Biblical or Puritanical? Yes,
but may I remind you that the Pilgrims were a bit uptight so that this might be
the best course of action from a historical sense. The ceremony could be held at Salem
Massachusetts and televised, finally getting Trump his coveted #1 Neilson
household rating.
This sort of reminds me of Watergate and Nixon, but it is
more unreal. I read a Dan Rather opinion
piece where he remarked that this scenario couldn’t be drawn up as a Hollywood
popcorn movie as it is too unbelievable to get a green light to produce. I think that is the one thing that has saved
Trump and Company so far in that it seems so totally crazy that normal citizens
are all asking themselves “There’s no way that could be true, right?”. Yet, it seems that it is what it looks like
as most things usually turn out.
Whenever I have ever heard someone say “this isn’t what it looks like!”
it is in fact 100% of the time always EXACTLY what it looks like. I walked into a room to get my coat at a
party and found my buddy’s sister naked on top of a bartender. She quickly blurted out “this isn’t what it
looks like!”. It was. It was EXACTLY what it looked like.
I am not sure as to why Trump is choosing to poke the bear
that is the Intelligence Community. The
Intelligence Community is a business that specializes in finding out what you
are up to and then can either allow you to weather a storm or bring down a
massive thundercloud of shit on top of you.
Why Trump continues to suggest that these people are stupid and
“un-American” is just about the worst tactic I could ever think of in this
scenario. If I were him I would bake up
a nice Bundt cake and send it on over tomorrow.
While this would not completely heal the wounds of their fighting, a
good Bundt cake can go a long way. “Hey,
he called us unpatriotic because we caught him working with one of our biggest
adversaries buuuuuut… that Bundt cake was really moist and sort of fabulous. Let’s not tell anyone about him colluding
with Russian spies in the election.”
The other amazing thing is the still unwavering support from
the ardent Trump supporters. How anyone
with a rational mind can look at this situation and not think something very
fishy went on is beyond me. On top of
that the big time Trump honk loves telling you how much they love America
because of how American they are while they are being American in America. It can’t be easy for them to pretend they are
suddenly chummy with Russia. If the
names in this story had been switched out to “Clinton”, I know a dozen people
that would have spontaneously combusted in pure rage. Why they are shucking and jiving through this
with Trump is baffling. Trump isn’t even
Republican. He’s a cheap used car
salesman. It’s been very interesting to
watch these poor saps try to figure out how to spin this in a way that makes it
OK. The fact that any sitting
Congressman or Senator isn’t demanding a complete “what the fuck is going on
here?” investigation should make them immediately dismissed from their post as
they clearly aren’t acting in the country’s best interests. This story is completely insane.
I saw a former intelligence officer today noted that a
senior intelligence community friend emailed him saying “He (Trump) will die in
jail”. That’s probably not good to have
being said about you from a bunch of guys in trench coats. Buckle up.
This is going to get good. Somebody
get the nuclear football away from the douche at Trump’s country club. We are going to need that back.
Indeed.
