Big Boat Out Of Control

Story by Cameron Adams

Donald Trump activated his trademark distraction mode on Wednesday as the crimes of the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein once again dominated headlines.

While the survivors of his former friend’s sexual abuse shared their harrowing stories with members of Congress, Trump was busy posting deranged memes and humblebrags on his Truth Social account.

The president cast a wide net of distraction by taking on a host of notable names including Gov. Gavin Newsom of California, actress Rosie O’Donnell, and even the old man in the much-discussed Cracker Barrel logo.

He even posted a video with his head added to the body of a pole vaulter.

Taking a brief break from his usual posting of Fox News clips that praise him and listing his accomplishments, from Social Security changes to his TikTok clout, Trump spent an entire hour on Wednesday sharing increasingly bizarre videos and memes with his 10 million followers.

donnie has had an auspicious 236 days.

So far.

He hasn't dismantled the Atlantic Alliance, but he has confirmed (last time they were pretty sure, but, since he had rational assistants back then he was given the benefit of the doubt) that he is a blithering idiot easily mastered with massive globs of adulation and praise.

He hasn't declared war on China, but he has put the world's second biggest economy and biggest component supplier to all the world's supply chains into dyspeptic dysphoria.

He hasn't called Prime Minister Modi a fucking raghead, but he has put a tax on Modi's country that is the most imbecilic attempted intrusion into another country's internal affairs since the good old days of the 19th Century.

And to assure that imbecility to the Western Hemisphere, he has intruded similarly into Brazil's internal affairs. 

He hasn't dismantled NATO but he has assured that if history's most successful military alliance continues it won't continue with the full leadership and participation of the United States; and he has convinced its members that he is a blithering idiot easily mastered with massive globs of adulation and praise.

He has allowed an indicted war criminal to come and go from US soil safe from arrest and with hugs, handshakes and red carpets in the interim.

There is so much more that he has accomplished - the newly manifested Global Counterweight just announced in Tianjin, globbing the Oval Office with golden filigree much like an over tinseled Yule Tree and getting cane sugar back in coke to name a few - but you get the gist.

I read Cameron Adams' brief, brilliant observation, posted above, and something - I think everything - just snapped.

How long can this go on before somebody drops a net over him and puts him in a permanently safe place?
