If the Trump administration was a TV comedy like “Arrested Development,” the writers would be up for every single award. The utter ridiculousness of it all, from the rambling toilet rants, to Rudy Guiliani’s admissions that contradict Trump’s statements, the best comics just couldn’t write this stuff.

Except it’s not funny anymore. Every day at work, my colleagues and I laugh at the latest insane thing that hits Twitter or Reddit regarding the latest snafu from Team Trump. However, while we all sit and facepalm at the stupidity of it all, real damage is being done to our nation.







Government positions aren’t being filled. Ambassadors are not being appointed, Russia has been trolling stupid people in Texas, and the media is breathlessly covering the most recent toddler-esque meltdown from Cheeto Mussolini.

These agreements are….. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 3, 2018

…despite already having signed a detailed letter admitting that there was no affair. Prior to its violation by Ms. Clifford and her attorney, this was a private agreement. Money from the campaign, or campaign contributions, played no roll in this transaction. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 3, 2018

These statements appear to have been written by someone else. They seem like a lawyer wrote them, which is is very likely considering it was followed up with a Tweet about the National Day of Prayer.

Today, it was my great honor to celebrate the #NationalDayOfPrayer at the @WhiteHouse, in the Rose Garden! Proclamation: https://t.co/4jAxJnBJoq pic.twitter.com/AsWTfpu290 — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 3, 2018

This whole thing is one giant mess. Never before have we had someone in the White House ranting about payoffs to a porn star, followed by statements about Christian “values.”

The only solution is to vote in November, and take back the House and Senate from his Republican enablers.

We can laugh and point all we want at the Trump dumpster fire, but the future of our country depends on us voting in every election.
