Trumpty Dumpty

Trumpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Trumpty Dumpty had a great fall.
And all of his lackeys and angry white men
Couldn't put Trumpty Dumpty back together again.

Hamberder

It should not be news to anyone that Donald Trump is a bad speller. However, yesterday he made a worse than ever mistake in his stupid bragging tweet about how he served fast food for a White House reception in the middle of his stupid government shutdown. He wrote that he was serving "hamberders". Now, you might suspect that it's some kind of misspelling slang, or cutesy baby language, but no. Nobody in the history of written English has ever spelled "hamburger" that way, for any reason. It's not even a phonetic spelling. It's just so very wrong. He even got trolled for it by Burger King: their official Twitter account announced that due to a big order yesterday, they were all out of hamberders, but still served hamburgers.

The United States has a president who not only has trouble spelling difficult words. He is illiterate to the point where he doesn't even know how to spell, or pronounce, his favorite food. This ridiculous, small and utterly stupid man needs to be put away.

Deflection By Projection

Donald Trump's strategy for fending off scandals and accusations against him is always the same: accuse others for having the flaws he himself possesses, and claim that other people committed the same kind of crimes that he very obviously did himself.

It's about as mature as saying "I know you are, but what am I?", and it's equally telling and ineffective. He has no other strategy, he is unable to learn anything new, and with his currentbdecline in mental capacity, it's doubtful that he even realizes that he is losing.

Beholden

be-hold-en
/bɪˈhəʊld(ə)n/
adjective
indebted; owing thanks or having a duty to someone in return for help or a service

Learn that word. It will be used a lot in the turbulent months ahead. Let's practice by putting it into a sentence: "Not only Donald Trump and his closest lowlife associates, but a significant portion of the Republican party leadership, are clearly beholden to Russian oligarchs and Vladimir Putin."

Amateur Hour

From the recent developments around the Trump presidency, we can conclude several things about the people around Trump, and about the Republican party in general: they are corrupt, evil, desperate and stupid. We can only hope for the US population to see this, and care enough to vote them out of power in a week from now.

Non Sequitur

A Republican-funded poll indicates that the Republican party faces a problem with voter turnout for the midterm elections. At first sight, this appears logical, because it would only be natural for Republican voters to have second thoughts about backing up an insane president and a deeply corrupt party. However, that is not the reason stated in the poll. Instead, the respondents indicated a lack of enthusiasm for voting because they believe the supposed "blue wave" of Democrat voters eager to vote the Congress out of Republican  hands is "fake news", and that - get this - there is no need to vote, because the Republicans are going to win anyway.

Let's think about that point of view for a moment. "The Republicans are going to win anyway, so I see no good reason to get off my as and actually vote for them." The laziness and sheer stupidity of that statement is appalling. This might possibly be a mental block, a way of motivating themselves to pull their support for a criminal to remain in power without actually admitting, even to to themselves, that they don't like him. However, I suppose we should be happy either way. The blue wave keeps gaining momentum, and the Trump presidency will hopefully be washed away by it.

Water is Wet

In a pathetic attempt to look presidential, Donald Trump appeared on TV and told American citizens that hurricane Florence, currently en route to the US, is going to be "tremendously big and tremendously wet".

Yes, seriously. Even for him, this is extraordinary imbecile and deeply embarrassing.

The president of the United States is a man with the mind and vocabulary of a five year old child. "Lookie, I used the big grown-up word twice! Donnie did good?"
