Un-reality and the Fake President
Power does not corrupt it merely attracts the
corruptible.
~Frank Herbert, Dune
The
current holder of the office of President of the United States is the
unparalleled exemplar of this statement. All the little fish that circle around
him, feeding off of him, they can’t hold a candle to the corruption in that
peevish-little-orange-menace’s bile filled heart.
On
Veteran’s Day, six days ago, T-Rump sat sulking in the residence of the of the
White House. He did not visit any of the wounded veterans at Walter Reed, neither
did the first lady, or anyone from his family.
Not
one of the Trump’s went to Arlington Cemetery, to pay their respects to all of
the people who are buried there, who gave their lives in our nation’s
conflicts.
None
of them ever served.
They
couldn’t.
The
Trumps do not have a modicum of selflessness about them.
T-Rump
was sad that his trip to Paris was so poorly received. He spent the rest of the
week whining about his bad press.
He
lost a law suit with CNN concerning the freedom of the press, and exactly what
authority the White House has to grant access to the media. As it turns out,
the courts say that they have very little.
T-Rump
appointed a man named Whitaker, to be the acting Attorney General of the United
States. The appointment appears to be in contravention of protocol, of federal
statues, and of the appointments clause of the Constitution itself.
T-Rump
does not care.
He
pretends to own the moniker of the Law
and Order President, while he shortsightedly seeks to subvert the rule of
law at every turn.
He
does not think the laws of the United States should apply to him or his family,
or anyone he chooses to exempt from it, a political ally, a financier, even a
murderous Crown Prince from the House of Saud.
Some
real critics have emerged against this charlatan from the conservative wing of
American politics. They have called out the GOP for having turned itself into a
cult of personality.
To
win at any cost, has become the name of the game.
The
acting Attorney General’s only qualification for the post appears to have been
his public and vocal criticisms of the probe being led by Special Counsel
Robert Muller, into the conspiracy to defraud the People of the United States,
by Russia and a cadre of homegrown actors, many of which served on the T-Rump
Campaign, and in his administration, and the obstruction of justice that
followed.
The
acting Attorney General auditioned for his role on several news outlets and in
person, while he served as Attorney General Jeff Sessions Chief of Staff. He met
with the Fake President many times, while they plotted this step.
Never
mind the fact that his appointment to that office is illegal, never mind the
fact that he has several conflicts of interest for which Justice Department
protocol will require that he recuse himself. Never mind the fact that he
served as a member of the board of directors for a company in Florida being
investigate for financial fraud, for bilking senior citizens out of their retirement
savings.
Power
attracts the corruptible, like moths to the flame, and the biggest flame of
them all is the orange tyrant living in the White House.
