And the stockings were stuffed with sealed indictments this holiday \u2026. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s not over til the fat man sings, isn\u2019t that what they say? Well, the fat man is howling. His personal attorney decided not to take a bullet from the boss after all and he\u2019s singing like a canary to Mueller\u2019s team, so much so, they recommended a light sentence, which probably tells us all we need to know about how far along this investigation has come. The noose is tightening. Trump, not exactly the most loyal boss we ever met, declared that Cohen should have the book thrown at him. And Gen. Flynn, he\u2019s like Cohen, no point throwing the rest of his life away on unreciprocated loyalties. Manafort, who originally decided to cooperate and then reneged, well, great guy once again. Manafort has a lot more to worry about than a pissed off President. He\u2019s got Russian assassins in the rearview.<\/p>\n
Poor Trump. His Sec. of State declared this week that he frequently had to tell his boss what he wanted was illegal. His boss tweeted that Tillerson was dumb as a rock and lazy as hell. Tillerson probably was president of Exxon parlaying those two talents, but he did understand the limits of the law, something Donald has never bothered to learn in the rough and tumble of New Yawk real estate. I suspect he\u2019s in for some cruel tutoring. <\/p>\n
But so are we. Anyone who thinks an impeachment is imminent better lay off the Spiked Egg Nog. The true believers don\u2019t care if their man grabs genitals, pays off porn stars, meets with Russians during a presidential campaign or bends the rules to make a buck or three. The true believers don\u2019t care much about truth. The true believers may not care if their hero has engaged in high crimes and misdemeanors. That, friend, is the state of the union today.<\/p>\n
If this were a Netflix series, we could binge for years. And after all, isn\u2019t that what Trump offered us, entertainment value? He certainly delivered, give him that. We\u2019re only in the second year \u2026 with the potential of two more, maybe six. The smart money would start planning for the sequel right now. Donald\u2019s not going to jail. He\u2019s going to do what he planned before the unexpected election victory happened. Make more money. Hype the Brand. Declare success and move up. The Republicans aren\u2019t going to impeach this guy and risk alienating the alienated. They\u2019re not suicidal. And the American People, you, me, the deplorables, we\u2019re hooked on the series now. Nobody wants a Sudden Ending. We want another cliff hanger, week after week. <\/p>\n
