I Love the Smell of Trump Shit in the Morning

In May of 2017, Anderson Cooper, completely fed-up with GOP pundit Jeffrey Lord defending Trump’s obvious law-breaking and corruption, finally said what millions of us were thinking: “Trump could take a dump on his desk, and you would defend it.”

Cooper later apologized for the remark. But as we knew at the time, and as has been demonstrated repeatedly since then, no apology was necessary – because Cooper’s only breach of political etiquette was to simply speak the oh-so-obvious truth.

It is glaringly apparent that Trump is becoming increasingly unhinged as he faces further investigation by the House Democrats, as further proof of his corruption is about to be exposed, and as he mulls over the prospect that he will lose his bid for re-election – an outcome which will inevitably land him in a legal quagmire that could ultimately lead to prison.

In view of Trump’s statements today about his willingness – nay, his drooling anxiousness – to accept any foreign power’s interference in our election process, and the fact that Republican spokes-whores are defending that position, exactly how close are we to the ‘stable genius’ pulling down his pants and shitting on the Resolute desk?

Thus far, the Republicans have defended this “pResident’s” 10,000-plus lies, his alienation of our allies, his praise of our enemies – the list goes on. They even defended Trump standing on the stage in Helsinki and siding with Putin and against his own countrymen. In other words, they will defend anything, no matter how vile, no matter how disgusting – no matter how demonstrative of a “pResident” who is clearly insane.

So how soon will we wake up to hearing Republican bobble-heads praising their “pResident” for taking a shit on the Resolute desk, and declaring it the bestest, most YUGE pile of excrement in American history – a pile of steaming turds so fragrant, so meaningful, so beautifully patriotic, it should be preserved and donated to the Smithsonian?

How soon will we be treated to an unending litany from the GOP of how an impressive pile of poop was exactly what the nation needed to make America great again?

Well, stay tuned, folks – because the way things are going, we might literally be minutes away from a Late Breaking News chyron displayed beneath a photo of a pile of Trump’s shit – followed by a debate among his Republican enablers about who among them had the honour of wiping his ass.

Anderson Cooper’s comment may prove to be more than just an honest assessment of how things stood back in 2017 – it may actually prove to be prescient. There is nothing this "pResident" won't do - and there is nothing his ass-kissing sycophants won't defend.
