Note to
readers: As of this writing, trump remains hospitalized but his keepers
are considering letting him out at any moment. That’s White House arrest with
an ankle bracelet.
What is firmly fixed? Why, the unchanging and immortal G_d, of course, at least according to Psalm 119:89.
Earth to trump: You are not a god, even
if you try to play one on TV. You are not unchanging, and you are not
immortal. For those two things, we are collectively grateful. Even the handful
that still like you.
But now you are sick in a new
way. It’s not the sicknesses we all know you have: Sloth, Greed, lying,
science denial. You are infected by the affliction you often refer to as a
hoax, COVID 19.
They helicoptered you to one of the
country’s great hospitals, Walter Reed. They fed you with magic potions,
there in the fantasy ward. It’s stuff no one really knows will do you any
good. They put a mask on your felonious nose and mouth. But this is
no ordinary mask, the kind we buy by the boxful from Dollar Tree, Shopping TV
and the internet. This is a mask with a hose and the hose is connected to
an oxygen tank with an open valve. So far, they’ve gassed you twice that
we know of.
They are feeding you hospital food,
which is awful even in the Hospital of Last Resort. No Big Macs for you,
Mr. “President.” No Diet Coke either. Rubber chicken, lime Jell-O and if
you’re lucky, an artificially sweetened chocolate chip cookie.
Yes, trump, your attempt to portray
yourself as immortal and indestructible goes right out the window along with
your feigned self confidence, your bluster and your usual manners which can
most accurately be described as Emily Post’s Worst Nightmare and biggest
failure.
And where is that walking Titoist
plastic surgery ad of yours? Didn’t she catch the virus, too? Or was that
another one of your lies, sparked by her unwillingness to stand near enough to
you to catch your germs? Is she being treated, too? Maybe on the couch in the
Major Donors’ lounge?
Let’s look at some of the least
outrageous conspiracy theories.
1.
trump faked getting the virus so he can
make believe he staged a miraculous recovery and despite his morbid obesity and
advanced age, quickly overcame the disease we shouldn’t be dreading.
2.
He’s sicker than his doctors are
telling us,
3.
It’s a sympathy ploy.
4.
It’s an end game so he doesn’t have to
run for reelection.
5.
The guy riding around in the “airtight”
car? That wasn’t trump. It was a body double.
While these are suspect, they’re also
possible. Other conspiracies exist. They are so stupid they’re unworthy of your
attention.
