As the Godfather Trump Saga plays out, it was indeed Fredo who did it.

Donald Trump, Jr., may have committed treason.

Trump Jr. confirmed that he went into the meeting expecting to receive information from the Russian lawyer that could hurt Clinton. That is a breathtaking admission.

So, his purpose in attending the meeting was to collude with a foreign power to help Trump in an election.

Poor Junior apparently does not realize that is treason, whether the meeting was successful or not.  I personally think it most likely was very successful, considering that three days later Julian Assange enters the picture.

There were three people at that meeting – Junior, Kushner, and Paul Manafort.  This leak tells me that Manafort is leaking like screen door on a submarine.

This is crooks bringing down crooks.

Angela, Babe, we know exactly how you feel.

Thanks to Tony for the heads up.

Apparently, Cheeto Jesus had more important business than the G20 in Hamburg, Germany.  So he sent Ivanka to represent the United States of America at the summit.  Just to review – Ivanka is unelected, unvetted, unappointed, and unapproved to represent the US in ANY matter, much less the G20.  Here she is sitting among world leaders while Daddy – tweets?

Oh, and Daddy tweeted this yesterday.  I guess “fighting” only applied to one day.

Out of the blue I asked, “Have you ever read Reinhold Niebuhr?”

Obama’s tone changed. “I love him. He’s one of my favorite philosophers.”

So I asked, What do you take away from him?

“I take away,” Obama answered in a rush of words, “the compelling idea that there’s serious evil in the world, and hardship and pain. And we should be humble and modest in our belief we can eliminate those things. But we shouldn’t use that as an excuse for cynicism and inaction. I take away … the sense we have to make these efforts knowing they are hard, and not swinging from naïve idealism to bitter realism.”

This exchange is from a piece written by David Brooks back in 2007 recalling a conversation with Barack Obama.  It’s just one example of the nature of a proper President of the United States, which Obama possesses in spades.  He can talk college basketball or philosophy, your choice.  The parasite infesting our WH today?  Not so much.  Between boasting and gorging on well-done steaks, Trump sits on the toilet tweeting childish insults and lies on a daily basis.

How far we’ve fallen in such a short time.  God help us.

Props to a Facebook friend for the reminder.

Well, our national nightmare is over.  The whole Russia / Trump thing has been disproven.

Was it a pinky promise or did he swear on a stack of Bibles?

Mother: What did the sign say, Mike?

Mike: Do Not Touch

Mother: And what did you do, Mike?

Mike: I touched it.

Honey, things ain’t gonna improve if he become president. I can promise you that.
