"Hobby" president




About 50 years ago, my sister pitched cards at the Mapes.

A "slick" or hobby cowboy strutted up to her 21 table (a.k.a. blackjack) and before he could take a chair, she asked: "Hey slick, how long you been a goat roper?



Today, she might ask the Donald: "Hey slick, how long you been president?

He's got the hat, but not the cattle!









The New York Times report, which has Trump upset, cited a dozen current and former White House officials claiming White House Counsel Donald McGahn had aided Mueller in the Trump-Russia probe.

He suggests we "study" McCarthyism - but not too close.



McCarthy saw a commie in every closet - and the president of the SAG rolled over on a few innocents.



Trump is much like the hobby cowboy who lies: "I won this belt buckle in the rodeo (he bought it in the corner drugstore), the pickup truck is paid for (he has at least 24 payments to go), and I was only HELPING the sheep over the fence."



He may wear them lizard boots and a Stetson hat, but Trump is no president - never was, never will be.



Former CIA director John Brennan, in a New York Times op-ed, wrote that Trump’s denial of collusion with Russia is “hogwash.” Brennan was in office during the 2016 campaign, and he received briefings from European intelligence services that intercepted communications between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin.



It all dates back to the summer of 2014 when a hacker in the Dutch intelligence agency AIVD penetrated the computer network of a university in proximity to Red Square, unaware of the deeper implications. One year later he and his colleagues watched Russians launching an attack on the Democratic Party in the United States. The AIVD group was in exactly the SAME computer network used by the Russian hacker group Cozy Bear. Unbeknownst to Russians, or team trumpster in the dumpster, the Dutch could see and record everything as it was happening.



Even at the very peak of Trump's game, he is no more than a twitter turd (tenderfoot under rigorous detection).
