Well it’s public hearings eve and we’re all atwitter. There’s even a short-fingered orange buffoon stumbling about, quivering in impotent rage and wearing out his tiny, tiny thumbs trying to stop the inevitable.
Before sending you off to this morning’s Good News Roundup for some welcome relief from all the lies, distortions and deflections, here’s today’s some shade rated suitable for throwing.
Back in October when tRump invented the Tallahassee Trail, most people assumed he had mangled a reference to the Appalachian Trail. With his proven track record of never ever having any comprehension of what he’s said, is saying or is about to say it’s an easy assumption to make. However, it’s not true. He was actually mangling a reference to a place he is quite familiar with — the Hadahissee Trail. tRump has spent a large part of his life traveling along and growing the Hadahissee. It’s a highly convoluted path with some pieces unconnected to the trunk. It runs from Mar-a-lago to the White House to 725 President Barack H. Obama Ave in New York City1; from the National Weather Service local offices in Alabama to Kiev, Ukraine; from sawed out sections of impenetrable border wall to children’s concentration camps; from Charlottesville, VA to the Turkish Syrian border; and next May a branch is scheduled to connect all the way to Donnie’s extra-special safe space in Moscow, where he can hang out with his buddy Vlad and rant, whine, spit and cry to his shriveled evil heart’s content. All he needs to worry about over there are a few more reams of kompromat. And since there’s already a four-story building dedicated to storing Russia’s collection of Dirt on Don he’s not concerned about adding to the pile.
The National Park Service is starting to construct markers along the trail. There’s now one in the Rose Garden reading: “On this site in early February, 2017 Donald J tRump set the career record for most public lies by a sitting US President. He eclipsed Richard M Nixon’s previous record (once thought unbeatable) after just 23 days in office.”
The proposed marker in Charlottesville will consist of the words “very fine people on both sides” embossed on a bronze Confederate battle flag where the stars are replaced with swastikas and the bars are replaced with stylized North Korean missiles.
