Trump's Parasitic Presidency
by Charles M. Blow

____ I think any who have been holding out hope that Trump will eventually change into someone more polished, professional and amenable than the man we have come to know must simply abandon that hope.

This is a 70-year-old man who has lived his entire life as the vile, dishonest, incurious creature who got elected. That election validated his impulses rather than served as a curb on them.

Trump will continue to debase and devalue the presidency with his lies. Trump will continue to follow Bannon’s philosophy of internal deconstruction of our government, its principles and its institutions. And Trump will continue to leech as much personal financial advantage as he can from the flesh of the American public.

That’s who Trump is. America elected a parasite.

4. As a very wise woman once said

"..Being president doesn't change who you are. It reveals who you are" -Michelle Obama

This is certainly true of #45, the current insane occupant of the WH

or a boil on the ass of every decent citizen of this country. The gop know what he is, but are busy tearing down every law that benefits those of us who "aren't THEM" The gop seems to be a magnet for unintelligent people, who then run for office!
