I keep trying to come up with functional analogies for the current White House and the lunatics

[Augiedog]

who occupy it at present. Nothing seemed to suffice. Until, of course, now.

I think I may have finally found such an analogy, one combined with another, that is sufficient, at least in my tiny mind.

Remember the giant bug from Starship Troopers ? How about the concept of the Hive mind? Well if you allow those two elements to Procreate so to speak you get...viola...an orange haired hive headed bug who eats eats brains for lunch. Good thing Mac Donald’s doesn’t serve brainburgers.

1. First thing that comes to mind

About like a monkey fucking a football

2. personally I think of them as the asshole drunk in the bar....

they piss off everyone, try to flirt with every woman and man in a desperate disgusting way. They buy everyone a drink but then don't pay.

Finally, when they try to leave, they almost fall off their stool; losing their balance. Stumbling across the room they try their best to regain their balance but fail when they face plant on a table; breaking it and spilling all the drinks on the people sitting there.

They then try to get up but only projectile vomit across the room, hitting everyone in it's path.

3. I've come up with a parade

As a Buddhist, I see Trump and his minions as the parade of the kleshas. The kleshas are the five main mental afflictions. Mental factors that produce states of mental torment both immediately and in the long term. The five principal kleshas, which are sometimes called poisons, are greed, anger (and hatred), ignorance, pride, and jealousy. Every time Trump appears, he is manifesting one or more of the poisonous kleshas.

Another inage that has come to mind is the story from the Book of Daniel. It is the story of Belshazzar's feast. He was the son of Nebachanezar, who sacked Jerusalem, stole all the treasure from the temple, and led the Jews off in slavery. Belshazzar was his son. One night at a feast with his court, he called for the golden cups stolen from the Jerusalem temple to be brought out and filled with wine, so that he and his court could drink from them. Then out of nowhere a hand appears and writes on the wall. "mene mene tekel upharsin."

they bring out old Daniel, the Jewish prophet, to interpret the writing, which translates as "you have been weighed ... and found wanting;" and "PERES, your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians."

That's what will happen to Trump. He will be impeached, eventually convicted of treason, abuse of power, obstruction of justice, and money laundering. Maybe sexual abuse too. His business empire will crumble, when he can no longer get any more loans, and people stop buying his crap.
