A couple of weeks ago my Arts Editor and I visited a friend and former colleague as he protested President Trump on a street corner in St. Paul. (My favorite of his signs: a picture of Trump with the word L I A R overlayed on it.)
My observation was that most drivers were giving thumbs-up or honking in approval, with the occasional thumbs-down, a frowny shake of the head, or, more memorably, a yelled FOUR MORE YEARS! We were not favored with thrown objects, as my friend has reported on previous occasions.
Anyways, watching the continual meltdown of one of the most powerful offices ever seen in the world made me think, as we raked leaves in the front yard this evening, that the perfect rejoinder might be this:
FOUR MORE YEARS? HE’LL BE LUCKY TO MAKE IT FOUR MORE MONTHS!
Or even four more weeks. It’s getting that bad, between the evidence and big bad Senator McConnell (R-KY), leader of the Senate Republican majority, beginning to put some space between himself and Trump.
All the little Trump-lite Congress critters had better start figuring out their exit strategies, because re-election will be hell for those who clasped the Father of Lies to their bosoms.
