The Rise and Fall of the Orange Oaf.

I feel like I've waited half my life to get a picture of Donald Trump as good as that one, for never have I seen him look so beaten.
It sums up what was one of Trump's worst weeks ever, and hopefully will be the one that will cost him the presidency.
As you probably know, the picture was taken when he returned from a rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, that he had promised would be huge or YUUUUUUGE.
But sadly for him it turned out to be an almost total bust.
Donald Trump isn't playing the mad doctor any longer, and suggesting that you can cure COVID-19 by injecting disinfectant into your veins, or shoving a powerful light up your rear end.
Not after he was informed that poison control calls have been soaring.
Not after learning that his polls are tanking.
And not after he finally figured out that people are laughing at him all over the world.
I must admit that when the "stable genius" Donald Trump made the unstable warmonger John Bolton his national security adviser, I thought our goose was cooked.
And that Bolton would be the one who would push Trump over the edge, and get us all blown up.
So imagine how happy I am to think that Bolton could be the one who blows up Trump.
As we all know Donald Trump has a special attraction for dictators. He likes to hang out with them, and share intimate moments with them.
And who can seriously doubt that he would LOVE to be one?
So when six months ago he tweeted out this announcement:
His terrified White House flunkies scrambled to pleasure him.
When I was in Scotland last summer, I was thrilled to be able to witness Baby Trump rise the into the sky at a protest in an Edinburgh park.
Trump wasn't in Edinburgh, he didn't dare leave his tacky Turnberry golf course on the country's west coast.
But I still enjoyed seeing the famous blimp up close, and I laughed so much I almost turned orange myself.
So I was glad to see it being inflated in London other day, just in time to welcome Trump back to Britain.
It seems like we've been waiting forever. But the signal was finally spotted.
The caped crusader jumped into his batmobile, and headed for the White House, where the Penguin was in a panic.
And now we can finally say it.
Donald Trump has always treated his country's democracy with contempt. And these days he's desperate to try to distract Americans from all his legal problems.
So while we can't know whether this is delusion or dementia, it shouldn't be surprising.
President Trump declared a national emergency at the border on Friday to access billions of dollars to build a border wall that Congress refused to give him, transforming a highly charged policy dispute into a fundamental confrontation over separation of powers.
But it is an abuse of power, and the American Caesar is going to pay a heavy price.
I tried to think of something to say about Donald Trump's State of the Union address, but this is all I could manage:
It was long, very long. His claim that investigating him was bad for the economy was pathetic.
The way he demonized immigrants was disgusting.
His failure to mention climate change even once was criminal.
And most painfully for him, Nancy Pelosi owned him...
Donald Trump's inauguration was supposed to be a magic moment that would mark his arrival on the word stage.
A glittering affair fuelled by millions of dollars in corporate donations.
But instead it turned into a huge embarrassment.
Donald Trump likes to say that he's really good at numbers. You know, the best.
Just like he says he knows more about science than the scientists.
But whatever he says about Global WAMING, after the long government shutdown, more and more Americans now believe he either doesn't know what he's saying or doing.
Or he's cuckoo.
Or both...
Donald Trump remember what happened yesterday for a long long time, maybe even forever.
For by the time the day was over, he must have felt he was trapped in a bad Batman movie, and they were calling him The Joker and The Toddler.
First Robert Mueller arrested his old buddy, the grubby old Penguin Roger Stone.
Which as you can see left Trump trembling with anger, and paranoia.
Then he was humiliated by Nancy Pelosi. Again.
It's not hard to imagine how Donald Trump must be feeling like today. It couldn't be easier.
All you have to do is read this hysterical tweet:
This is what he is complaining about.
Donald Trump has been holed up in the White House for days, in cold grey Washington, when he'd much rather be in sunny Florida playing golf.
He's still clinging feverishly to the hope that by shutting down the U.S. government he can force the Democrats to give him billions to build the Great Wall of Trump.
But he's getting nowhere, he's running out of time, the Democrats take over half of the Congress tomorrow. And as this tweet makes only too clear:
He's slowly going crazy.
I'll never forget how Mad Mike Flynn used to warm up Donald Trump's election campaign rallies, by getting the Trumpling mob to chant "lock her up, lock her up, LOCK HER UP!!!!!!!"
Triggering a foaming frenzy of hatred aimed at Hillary Clinton, that was drenched with misogyny and depravity.
And of course I also can't forget the few weeks that Mad Mike actually served as Trump's National Security Advisor.
There was clearly something terribly wrong with Donald Trump during his recent visit to France.
He seemed bitter, paranoid, angry. Afraid of everything, including the rain.
It was clear that the midterm election losses had hit him hard, and shattered his once lacquered confidence.
But who knew it was as bad as this?
As I'm sure you know, Donald Trump's trip to France, to mark the 100th anniversary of World War I, was a diplomatic catastrophe.
And a PR disaster similar to the time he climbed the steps to Air Force One, with a long piece of toilet paper stuck to his shoe.
He was heavily criticized for using light rain as an excuse to skip a visit to a U.S. cemetery.
He was trolled by the French Army.
I can only imagine what state Donald Trump must be in this weekend, after the way he reacted to the midterm election results.
Going after and then banning CNN's Jim Acosta from the White House, firing Jeff Sessions, mocking some of his own defeated Republican candidates.
Firing off inflammatory tweets like this one.
Denying that his staff used a doctored video to ban Jim Acosta.
Only to lie like a thief, again. And sound like a maniac.
Well it wasn't the big blue wave I had been hoping for, to bury the sinister sand man Donald Trump once and for all.
But it was quite a wave, it has crippled Trump.
Democrats seized control of the House while Republicans held the Senate on Tuesday in a national referendum on President Trump that drew record numbers of voters to the polls and opened the door to tougher oversight of the White House over the next two years.
The dramatic conclusion of the most expensive and consequential midterms in modern times fell short of delivering the sweeping repudiation of Trump wished for by Democrats and the “resistance” movement. But Democrats’ takeover in the House still portended serious changes in Washington, as the party prepared to block Trump’s agenda and investigate his personal finances and potential ties to Russia.
And all you have to do to know how deeply the orange fascist has been wounded, is to read his pathetic tweets.
There are now just five days to go before the midterm elections, and Donald Trump has never felt so threatened.
Polls suggest that he could lose control of the House and maybe even the Senate.
So he's pulling out all the stops.
And playing the racist card
Afterwards just about everybody agreed, it wasn't one of Donald Trump's better days.
He was up at 3:14 am angrily tweeting out this:
Which let's face it, wasn't very Presidential. Just very Trump.
Only to have his day, a few hours later, become even worse.
