The Washington Post reported that Immigration and Customs Enforcement planned to target about 2,000 families who had received deportation orders in up to 10 cities â including Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Houston â starting on Sunday, even though the president had originally claimed on Monday that âmillionsâ would be removed.
Come to think of it, I do see a serious challenge for the Trump administration. What to do with all those whiny liberal, left, progressive unpatriotic, anti-American Americans?
Guantanamo Bay? An off-shore oil well platform that is about to explode? Salt caverns? Solitary confinement with 24 hour per day re-runs of Oprah Winfrey? Detention centres on the Mexican side of the border? Five years of community service working 60 hour weeks at Walmart?
Unpatriotic intellectual conservatives and self-styled libertarians deserve far worse.
Long after the Orange Man is gone, graduate students and their advisors will be dining out on the Trump administration for decades. Business, economics, social psychology, political sociology, international relations, strategic studies and probably more. Perhaps an ambitious Historian will look into what Trump was actually up to while presumably attending economics classes at Wharton. (Sniffing glue? Non-stop, promiscuous sex? Comic-book reading?)
He could be fondly remembered as the Make-work president in nerdy circles.
I've heard from reliable sources young rumpie-dump laid on his back, with Roy Cohn humming show tunes and wet wiping his mushroom while being pee-pee spritzed by call girls, it's true : )

Actually he inspires considerable odium no matter the preparation...A human stop gap mechanism in the guise of changing priorities clogging the breach of a greater understanding...
I must be shallow. I laugh every time I read this.

I believe all this and more because the alternative is unthinkable: that our great nation inflicted on the world a president who is, well, a stone cold loser, boorish and ignorant.

Worse yet, Trump is not an inspiring speaker while reading from a prepared text.

And
I am fully prepared to believe Trump tomorrow if he says âI never
called Sadiq Khan a âstone cold loserâââ â even though Trump, landing in
Britain on Monday, called the London mayor just that in a tweet that misspelled Khanâs name and also mocked him for being short.
I

our great nation inflicted on the world a president who is, well, a
stone cold loser, boorish and ignorant.
Therefore
I plan to do as Trump does: live today as if yesterday never happened.
But itâs not enough to imagine away this weekâs name-calling. To
preserve national dignity, Americans must accept that none of the
following ever happened:
He didnât refer to Brussels as a âhellholeâ nor assert that âBelgium is a beautiful city.â And spelling the British prime ministerâs name as that of a British porn actress? Never happened.
His
administration didnât confuse Singapore with Indonesia and China with
Taiwan, nor misidentify the Australian prime minister, nor misspell âDenmark.â Not once did Trump vow to âpromote the possibility of lasting peachâ in the Middle East.
Trump, furthermore, did not sign the guest book at Israelâs Holocaust memorial with the words âso amazing.â
He didnât pull his name from a Group of Seven communique. He didnât
take a limousine and a golf cart instead of walking with other world
leaders at summits. He didnât struggle with a group handholding exercise
in Manila, his knuckles didnât whiten in the grip of Emmanuel Macron, and Melania Trump did not swat his hand away on the tarmac in Tel Aviv.
Furthermore,
Trump did not reveal secret Israeli intelligence to Russia. He didnât
accuse Germany of being âtotally controlled by Russia.â He didnât taunt the French over street protests, attack the idea of NATO, use an all-caps tweet to threaten Iran with annihilation, hail âfantasticâ strongmen nor pine for the reign of Moammar Gaddafi.
Fortunately,
it has all been a misunderstanding. For if an American president had
actually done even a fraction of the above, it would be an indelible
national disgrace.
