Yep, He’s a Crook . . .
Mea culpa, mea culpa. I was wrong. I didn’t think Trump would last two months. As old and cynical as I am I still thought the Enlightenment origins of this nation, no matter how old, frayed, and haggard, would cause a primal rage to rise up and accept that the extreme methods are needed to save the country. I was wrong. Lot’s of people lost a lot of sleep but there was just enough of the neofascist and/or racist suckers out there to cause the majority to hesitate. Perhaps this was best. It’s not like the orange turd wasn’t granted a chance to show his full competence or lack. But he came through by imitating the only person who can still concentrate the minds of America. Tricky Dick.
But now it appears that the individual in question has actually pulled a Nixon. It apparently took a week of hard work and intense concentration for the Trumpster fire White House to figure out how to write a short letter terminating the head of the FBI and doing a really smooth, coordinated announcement with three people involved. For this regime that is impressive. The fact that Sessions is totally compromised with the Russians and the whole thing was obviously to block Trump entanglement with Russian money becoming an immediately impeachable offense is pretty much par for these people’s idea of carefully thought out. Wow. Since Comey is heading the only serious investigation into the Trump ownership by Russian interests, let’s fire him. That’ll solve all of our problems. We’ll say that it was because he did such a nasty thing to Hilary Clinton over the fake email investigation. Why that is totally believable. Let’s do it.
Somehow everyone is talking about Dick Nixon. That’s not how this was supposed to go. Now what?
