Loud Donald

In the evenings, boredom languishes him. Having ended at half past seven, heavy works for the benefit of the people, he retires to the living half of the house and there, wrapped in a bathrobe, gloomily watches Fake News on TV, writes angry tweets and talks on the phone. Having barely waited for the end of the week, he flies into his Florida estate to the usual lifestyle.

He needs constant recognition. He yearns for the election campaign when he spoke in front of an enthusiastic crowd, reveling in his popularity. Already after the elections, he arranged a "Victory Tour." After the press conference, at which the “dishonest press” asked him so many insidious questions, and then said “false news”, he awarded her the title of “enemy of the American people” and rushed to Florida to a new rally of fans, so that he once again swim in the rays of glory.

He looks like the hero of Bertolucci’s film “The Last Emperor” - the young ruler of the Middle King and who desperately seeks to break out of the forbidden city. People close to him claim that he suffers from Cabin Fever - irritability of loneliness and life in four walls. Work usually saves from this trouble, but he, apparently, is not used to systematic work, he does not have internal discipline and willpower to force himself to be interested in what he took this post for. Its nature is completely different: it relies on the external effect and a cavalry fuss. One such scan - for a visa regime - ended, to his great annoyance, defeat in court. The other is for the reform of medical insurance for Obama - according to the leaders of his own party, and you should not start.

“There was no president who would have done so much in such a short time,” he says , and he himself completely sincerely believes in it. After all, he has already signed so many decrees! And for greater importance, he ordered to replace the chrome pen, which signed Obama's papers, with gold. A lot of pens are required: he has the habit of giving them those present at the signing ceremony. However, he confuses the publication of the decree with the real resolution of the issue.

“In our government, an implausible confusion continues,” General Tony Thomas recently said, the commander of the forces of special operations. “I hope they will soon figure out what’s what, because we are a fighting country.” And as this confusion does not continue. Of the approximately 1,200 high posts, which the president appoints, and claims the Senate, more than 500 remain vacant - the previous owners of the posts have fired or dismissed, but they have not yet found new ones. In the State Department alone, such positions are 116, including six of the nine deputies of the Secretary of State. In the Ministry of Defense - 53.

The president seems to have just learned about the destructive power of nuclear weapons (it is possible that he wanted to solve the North Korean problem with his help). In any case, he spoke about this to reporters as a big news for himself: "I was informed here ... it was a secret briefing, but I can say because it is written in all books: a nuclear disaster will be different for any other." Nevertheless, he wants the United States to have even more nuclear weapons. He is sure that the cause of autism is vaccinations. And he has no doubt that all surveys with adverse results for him are “false news”.

Why isn't anyone objecting to him? There is such a concept - " field of distortion of reality ." This property was inherent in Steve Jobs - he could "convince anyone of anything." But a simpler, although no less absurd explanation was given by Bulgakov in the Theater Roman: "They do not mind the enemy of the Sivtsev." You just need to not read the shot, meekly agree to the dagger and mother Antonin, but do it in his own way and as it should. For example, the leaders of the American automobile industry, with whom the president met in his first working week, did not mind, because there is no need for this. The president has dense and outdated ideas about the global automobile market. It threatens with high tariffs companies with production capacities abroad. But no one imports American cars manufactured abroad to the United States - they are sold where they did. And European and Japanese manufacturers build their enterprises in America - they do not take away, but create jobs for Americans.

And so no matter what. It got to the point that high officials do not specify or interpret the words of the president, but they say as if he had not pronounced them at all. “The prey belongs to the winner,” the president said in his speech at the CIA headquarters, setting out his vision of the war in Iraq. “We had to hold oil in our hands. Well, maybe we will have a different chance.” These words extremely puzzled and even scared the Iraqi government. But the defense minister Jim Mattis, who recently visited Iraq, firmly assured that the United States has no similar plans. Before the press had time to notify the world that Washington refuses the concept of two states in the Palestinian-Israeli settlement, as the US Ambassador to the UN, Nickei Hely, announced the commitment to the US concept. And in her first speech at a meeting of the Security Council, she unequivocally called Crimea the territory of Ukraine, and this was the first official statement of the new administration for Crimea.

Of course, if all the steam goes into a whistle, even if at least a diamond pen sign. But this insanity has its own system. The President spreads any question to which he has to answer in porridge. He discusses for a long time and verbose about future relations with Russia, but when you try to extract from this abundant reconciliation at least some meaning, nothing happens.

Hillary Clinton made a reboot - remember this stupid plastic button, which put us all with morons? If I did it, I would be a bad guy ... You need to understand: if I am now a harsh with Russia, they will say everything, and you will say: Oh, isn't that wonderful? But I know you well. Later you will say: it is too firm, we should not do that ... I think Putin may have decided that he could not deal with me, because to join the transactions with Russia is unpopular to the politician. I am a politician at present. It would be much easier for me to show rigidity in relation to Russia. But then we will not be able to agree with her. I don't know if we can agree. Maybe we can - maybe not. But you know what? I want to act correctly for the sake of the American people ... Does anyone really believe that Hillary Clinton would be tougher with Russia than Donald Trump

So is he going to be tougher or softer with Russia? Personally, I could not understand. This porridge climbs and climbs out of the White House, like from the Grimm brothers, through the eyes and ears she penetrates the brain, we will all be caressed in four years, and drown in this universal lubricant. He does not contrast his truthful news with “false” news - he inspires us that there is no difference. " Post -Related " - the word of the year according to the version of the Oxford dictionary. And this is no longer Orwell, but Carroll :

*Less bread! More taxes!

... some yelled: “Bread!”, Others: “Taxes!”, But no one really understood what they want.*

And the New York Times, who told about the lonely pastry of the president, was awarded new and especially vicious attacks. “I don’t think that the president is putting on a robe,” the President’s press secretary sprouted the newspaper. “The president certainly does not ... the president is perfectly aware of a policy that comes from the White House for his signature.” He demanded an apology from Nyt, but the newspaper did not apologize. But in social networks there were photos of the president in a dressing gown. But it was not true for a long time.
