Mockery

January 2, 2020

Donald Trump and his followers have decided to make a mockery of the election and democracy. As someone once said, “It’s a free country.” Therefore, there is nothing stopping me from making a mockery of Trump even though he is doing a pretty good job of it himself.

The world is dying to know why Donald Trump left Mar-a-Lago prematurely, causing him to miss his $1,000 a plate New Year’s Eve party as well as several opportunities to cheat at golf. Conspiracy theorists believe it is because he hated Melania’s redecorating so much that he couldn’t bear to spend another night not being able to take a crap on a golden toilet. He actually ordered all of her work to be ripped out. I wish I could feel one ounce of sympathy for her.

One school of thought is that he couldn’t face his followers and future neighbors, knowing he had been crushed at the polls. Word had it that the cancellations were pouring in once people realized they did not have to risk their lives at an unmakes ball in order to kowtow to a loser.

Trump’s Palm Beach neighbors may have sent him packing as they get ready to enforce the 21 day limit on stays at Mar-a-Lago. He is a persona non grata at his own club, in Palm Beach, and in most places like New York City and the rest of the western world. He probably had to helicopter out of there before they ripped out his helicopter pad.

I think the reality is that he had to get back to Washington in order to start packing.
