We will go into the trump depression, and it will be worse than anything we could imagine, and from their dragging their feet getting this out. The trump depression is coming from trump and the Republicans refusal to get nearly enough directly to the American people.

I’m certain they are giving him horrible advice which amounts to agreeing with every hairbrained idea Trump concocts.

(cough cough), COS Meadows needed to invite some especially rabid sycophants to make Lysol Von Syphilis feel better.

Where is Malignia? Barron? They haven't made an appearance in awhile.

I know, it's not Barron's fault. But I'm not feeling gracious. Maybe at the end of this horror story he'll emerge pure and with wisdom and compassion like Siddhartha Gautama who'd been unaware there was suffering and became enlightened.

Damn. This mess is making me loopy.
