Things that make you go "hmmmm" ...

We’ve been told by Trump’s legal team (or what passes for one) that the “pResident” is too busy with the important affairs of state to sit for an interview with Mueller.

Just out of curiosity, what pressing matters are tying up Trump’s valuable time?

Is it the hours he devotes to watching FOX-News? Is it the time he spends tweeting about NFL “kneelers”, and commenting on the “failing” (all evidence to the contrary) news outlets that cover his lies and his incompetence?

Is it the business of the country OR his golf schedule that’s being interrupted here?

If the “pResident” has the time to tweet about Samantha Bee and other perceived enemies, why doesn’t he have the time to answer Mueller’s questions?

If the “pResident” has enough time to weigh-in on the “fake news”, why doesn’t he have the time to participate in an all-too-real investigation?

If the “pResident” is too busy to be interviewed about things that have an impact on our democracy, how can he spare the time to ramble on and on in a call-in to FOX-News – an interview that even FOX cut short as Trump declared he had plenty of time to continue?

If the “pResident’s” time is so precious, why does he devote so much of that precious time to disparaging people like Rosie O’Donnell or Samantha Bee – whose opinions of him have little-to-no influence on the governance of the country?

By my estimation, were Trump to refrain from tweeting, playing golf, gluing himself to the TV, phone-gabbing with Sean Hannity, and seeking advice from his buddies at Mara Lago, he would have more than enough time to meet with Mueller and explain himself.

So why isn’t he available?

Just another thing that makes you go "hmmmm" - among a thousand other things that the Trumpsters have no explanation for.

To reinforce them onto his followers as the truth. He's used this tactic before for many things. He verbally repeats his lies also. Saying the same thing two times or more. You know they're lies once you see his pattern . He uses his propaganda to his advantage as many believe him still, no matter how ridiculous a statement he makes.

You know the answers to every one of your questions.

As usual, however, you've written a great rant.
