TheTrump Pledge of Allegiance

You may recall an earlier cabinet meeting at which in a nauseating display of obsequious behavior Donnie required that each in sequence around the table sing their version of" How Great Thou Art". You may have noticed that Donnie has had a burst of patriotism lately, mainly taking the form of criticizing black football players whose opinions with which he disagrees. Overcome by this feeling of patriotism, an unconfirmed rumor from an unreliable source surfaced saying that Donnie required a Pledge of Allegiance at the outset of today's cabinet meeting. This was, of course, a Pledge he particularly designed himself. It went as follows:

"I pledge allegiance solely to Donnie and to him alone, and not to the country which he, you should excuse the expression, leads or its citizens. I acknowledge that no competent president would remotely consider putting me in the cabinet post I know hold. I owe this nifty job and the appearance that I am a really big deal solely to Donnie and to him I pledge my undying loyalty with no expectation of reciprocity from him."

At the close of the cabinet meeting, Donnie told them to go out and say or do something that makes him look good,  unconstrained by reality or truth. To that remark was heard a hearty" Here Here".

In other news recently, Sen. Lindsey Graham perhaps unwittingly confessed to something we all knew anyway. Graham said that the Republicans had to pass a tax plan without discussing what that plan should be. He said that the Republicans had to do it, not because it was good for the country, but if they did not pass a tax plan they might not be reelected. What would such a plan be? Obviously Donnie doesn't care as long as it is referred to as" reform". He won't care what is in it. In all fairness, how could he since he never reads them.

Drum had a press conference today in which he pretty much lied in answering any question put to him.

Of course today the reporters and moderators on the news channels and their ubiquitous panels will be seriously parsing these remarks. You may recall a song called Louie Louie. There was once a radio station that played it for 24 hours straight. What the news channels should do is for 24 hours have nothing on the screen other than a continually looping sentence which reads" Trump is an ignorant ,incompetent liar and Congress cares nothing about anything other than being reelected". Really, is there anything else that needs to be said?
