Tom the Dancing Bug, IN WHICH the boy president Donald Trump and his imaginary publicist John Miller convince the world that little Donald is a very stable genius.

Itās pretty scary to contemplate that in a phone conversation between Trump and Kim, Kim will probably sound like the adult.

I really wish people on Twitter would stop warning of the perils of Trump talking to Mueller. I mean, theyāre right of course, but heās the one person I want to make that mistake.

I donāt think heāll be given a choice, TBH. Written responses are generally only allowed in cases where the testimony of the person is of lower value than their time (e.g. a trauma surgeon being sued over 2 inches of fence line placement would usually be allowed to give written responses, or a celebrity on tour and being questioned over some relatively minor civil suit).
For something where the security of the free world is at stakeā¦ Yeah, that doesnāt quite meet that bar.

As long as people keep telling trump heās too stupid/not brave enough to face Mueller, heāll go straight for it

It is worthwhile to review previous Trump depositions and counter his evasion techniques. eg bring reading glasses for him or print any material that you want him to comment on in large type.

Do we know his prescription? Is it publicly available?
Oh you youngs! Reading glasses arenāt prescription, theyāre just straight magnification.

Bless you, dear, for calling me āyoung.ā Compared to Trump, maybe. Meanwhile, my reading glasses definitely are prescription. At least thatās what my optician calls the printout listing the diopters and whatnot; I donāt know if they call it something different in other parts of the world.

āOH, how long can trusty President Stumpy hold out? HOW can he possibly resist the diabolical urge to press the button that could erase our very existence? ā¦ The beautiful, SHINY button! The jolly, CANDY-LIKE button!!ā

I was thinking that Mueller could bring one of every prescription from .50 to 4.00. But if Trump pulls the āreading glassesā thing, Mueller should first ask what his prescription is, then bring out the glasses. That way, Trump couldnāt say, āOh, mine are special and you donāt have mineā.

I keep seeing the argument that having a mental disorder does not necessarily mean a president should be removed from office and then they talk about Reagan and Clinton and so on. That may be so, but in this particular case, the man is batshit crazy and should be removed from office.
What are they saying, that just because it doesnāt necessarily mean he should be removed that he gets a pass?

I'm very well aquainted, too, with matters economical,
I understand the 1% must have tax that is nominal,
About two-state solutions I am teeming with a lot 'o nukes (a lot o' nukes)
And all the generals crap their pants and wonder if we need a coup.

When I became the President it wasn't what I meant to do.
I wanted to enjoy the fame and maybe make a mill or two.
I went to all the rallies which felt like a public pillory
And tried intimidating the appalling Crooked Hilary!

My hands, they gesture swiftly to obscure my digits minuscule.
Iāll whine an edict, sign a law, and brag how I was smart in school.
Aesthetically, I fancy colors gilded and adorned in golds.
In bed I lay while dripping burger sauce into my belly folds.

Nice! Ok I'll bite: "Each evening I tune into my big screen televisions (three!)

I block them out with folders full of praise and facts alternative!"
