Monday Mayhem
Tuesday in Singapore
By Mike Meyer
Jesus, am I sick of Trump. The man is an idiot and lives on chaos. That means if something good accidentally happens he’ll destroy it by, yes, accident. That is my current fear of the try outs for the dictator dance contest that’s happening in Singapore. I don’t think Kim is going to blow anything up but he is going to play Trump like a fiddle. The problem will be when the exhausted White House staff finally manages to get Trump’s phone away from him long enough to tell him that he agreed to ritual castration in exchange for token denuclearization. It’s the reaction to that I’m worried about.
So help me understand this process. Trudeau played Trump on Trump’s grandfather’s brothel back in the days of the gold rush. Yes, it looked like a hotel. I think it took a lot of explaining for the international effect of Trudeau's poke to be gotten across to Trump. Naturally he went ape shit. Since he had decided to show off at the G7 illustrating his great power and it got sliced, diced, and handed to the entire planet on plate with a picture of Merkel telling little Donny to quite being a baby. That was then, yes, trumped by the caption of them all telling little Donny to let them know what Putin has on him and maybe they could help. This era moves way too fast for someone like Donny Trump.
Now I’m worried that the true nature of what happened in Montreal is going to dawn on Trump while he is meeting with Kim. Now that’s scary. I forgot to add ‘impulsive’ to the attributes at the start of this.
We just learned the Larry Kudlow, Trump’s economic adviser, who had the misfortune to be taken to Quebec has had a heart attack following his incredibly display on the Sunday talk shows. He is apparently doing well but the collateral damage to people around Trump is becoming difficult to comprehend. That is why do these people allow themselves to be put into these situations? I have a theory on that also.
It’s generally known that Trump is fond of nose candy and seemed to have some problems with it in the debates he had with Hillary. He regularly gets amped up for his rallies. I think he’s giving people pills to get them going after they have been briefed. This doesn’t work all that well though. Remember Anthony Scaramucci? I think they gave him too much at the start and he went right up into low earth orbit. Sean Spicer didn’t get any and was worn down to a nub. So maybe Trump has been restricting the medicine to political advisors as they can be shuffled off much easier than actual staff.
But that brings us to Rudi Giuliani. There is an example of what this is about. Old Rudi likes it. They spice him up and he goes wild, eyes rolling, spit flying, and one of the best examples of a methamphetamine trip I’ve ever seen. I’m afraid they slipped some to Kudlow and it was too much for him. His mouth got completely away form him and when he came down they had to take him to the hospital. This, of course, is merely my impression but that comes from being a Vietnam veteran and we knew about that stuff.
You see why I’m just sick of this Trump shit. Nothing good can come from it. Even if it were potentially good, and everyone scores sometimes, the ancillary damage is horrendous.
