Signaling Deep Throat

By Carter Eskew October 26 at 12:02 PM

I’ve been hanging around parking garages lately hoping to run across the ghost of “Deep Throat,” some shadowy but omniscient source who can make sense of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s current investigation. If, like Bob Woodward, I could put a flag in a balcony plant and summon the spirit, how might he set me straight:

Me: I’m stuck — it seems like the Russians were playing everybody in the election.

Deep Throat: You’re missing it.

Me: But Hillary Clinton’s campaign …

DT: Forget that. Plenty in the bureau hate the Clintons. Always have and will always try to dirty them. Keep your eye on what’s important.

Me: Which is …?

DT: (exasperated) Don’t make it so hard. Can’t you see? The Russians wanted Trump, not Clinton. Their entire intervention in our election — from the news bots, to allies like Carter Page, Paul Manafort and Michael Flynn to the meeting with Don Jr. — was about hoping to elect a president who would ease the sanctions that pinch the oligarchy that enables Putin.

Me: But so what? Trump didn’t do anything directly.

DT: Look at obstruction.

know their name is when the public found out fifty million ENRAGED trump supporters grabbed their guns, got in their cars, drove to DC and overpowered the Secret Service and that democrat was never seen or heard from again.

You see if a democrat were to do a tiny fraction of what this man does, like it is proven he has lied TWELVE HUNDRED times this year alone, so if that was a democrat they would be TAKEN OUT by fifty million deplorables and there are not enough Secret Service or North Pole caves for someone to hide in from them.








I have to say here this is not a true story, dont wanna upset someone and get reported for something like a CT or something...sigh

I am using hyperbole to make a point...
