GOVERNMENT MAY SHUT DOWN AS TRUMP TURNS COUNTRY INTO A SHITHOLE!

President Donald J. Trump

All the signals were there pre-election.

Donald Trump had run several companies into the ground over the years, filing bankruptcy, pulling the cash out, leaving investors high and dry, forcing vendors to sue to recover a tiny portion of the money due them.

Students at Trump University got nothing in exchange for thousands of dollars of tuition except a good life lesson in how easy it is to be fleeced.

Should it surprise anyone that the self-proclaimed artist of the deal can't make one to keep the government going?  A budget can't be flim-flammed by con artistry.

Senate leader Mitch McConnell came up with the exact bi-partisan deal Trump said he would sign, then, after after chatting with immigration hardliners, Trump flip-flopped.   

As an Arkansas pig farmer might say:  "The Prez boo-booed in his nest," or, put more delicately, "defecated in his shithouse."

Ol' Mitch was frustrated.  Standing beside him was Texas Senator John Cornyn, nodding his head as McConnell said:

"If the president would just tell us what kind of bill he will sign, we could do something.  Otherwise, we're just spinning our wheels."

The 35% of registered voters unified behind the president, frequently referred to as his "base," were not discouraged.  An unemployed Appalachian coal miner gave Trump an "11" on a scale of 1-10: 

"Donald Trump has done everything he promised.  If the fake news media would let him do his job, he could even get more done.  It's gotten so the only good thing on TV anymore is Fox and Friends and 'rasslin'."
