I Stand Corrected

Take your pick: “Stupid is as stupid does,” or “The blind will follow the blind”: Either title applies when it comes to summing up the political situation in our nation’s capital, right? 

What has become apparent in the first 110 days of 45’s presidency, is that the man exceeds every conceivable pinnacle when it comes to being just plain stupid. That he is uneducated is patently obvious, but just listening to him try to formulate a coherent thought is kind of scary, he is that stupid, right? 

45 has left nothing to our imagination.

His most recent folly, that of firing the director of the FBI, in order to dodge inevitable responsibility for his treasonous actions with Russia, only adds one more unnecessary nail to his political coffin. Tacked on to the list of clearly illegal activities, that stem from his taking advantage of his elite position, it adds up to a colossally stupid man, right?

Or is it the rest of us who are stupid?

What if the plan all along was simply to make his already miserable name, more famous, thus swelling the multiple, overseas bank accounts?

Duh

What if even the preposterous notion of his actually getting elected, came to fruition? How much the better for promoting his immoral efforts to gain more money? Of course he is breaking multiple laws; he may be stupid, but his lawyers are not.

What if what his lawyers tell him, is that he can break all the laws he wants, and he’ll never serve a day in jail? What if he will, however, make a boatload of money, the size of your basic aircraft carrier?

Let’s think about this but not for very long because it’s enough to make one vomit. 45 was already a billionaire, he runs for President, he gets elected, he breaks a bunch of laws, he makes a mint, his kids make a mint, he sees no jail time, and eventually, he goes down. 

We glorify in his disgrace, we berate those who supported him, a lot of people suffer and die, and 45 walks away from it all, for all appearances a disgraced buffoon, except for one minor detail: He is even wealthier than he ever imagined for the experience.

Fucking brilliant. And I thought the man was stupid.
