And the Cheese Stands Alone
Donald Trump is about to learn some very hard lessons.
He is about to learn that actions have consequences that you can’t simply throw money at in order to make them go away. He is about to learn that he has been the author of his own misfortune, and that every lie told, every threat uttered, every unhinged statement made, will now be used to bring about his inevitable downfall.
He is about to be made to understand that despite his delusions to the contrary, he is not above the law, and that his current position as a small-p pOTUS will not shield him from justice not only catching up with him, but being served.
But the most painful lesson he is about to be taught is that when political push comes to shove, those he has relied on for unconditional loyalty will sell him down the river if it means saving their own skins.
The Republicans who were so quick to abandon their party’s principles, as well as their own, in order to lie for him, cover-up his wrongdoing, even perjure themselves in furtherance of his agenda, will be just as quick to reverse themselves when personally and/or politically expedient to do so.
Trump is about to learn that his world is not full of martyrs willing to be nailed to his personal cross – it is full of Judases who, for thirty pieces of CYA silver, will be more than anxious to deny he was ever their saviour in the first place.
His closest allies in the White House will claim to be nothing more than coffee boys, too insignificant to have been aware of what was really going on.
His steadfast GOP devotees will suddenly raise their eyebrows, feign surprise, and swear they had absolutely no idea of the corruption that was going on right under their noses, and will vow to cooperate – while sputtering ”I had NO idea!” – with those who are finally ‘getting to the bottom’ of crimes they undoubtedly knew were taking place all along.
It’s said there are no atheists in foxholes – just as there are no true believers when their messiah starts losing the war, and it’s every man for himself.
Over the next few months (if not weeks), we’ll be witnessing a lot of shock and awe from Republican congress-critters and other powers-that-be in the GOP, as they pretend to be astonished that their Putin-loving, Kim Jung Un-adoring, MbS-worshipping “pResident” was selling out the country all along.
We won’t have to wait for them to deny him three times before the cock crows. They’ll deny him as many times as it takes to distance themselves from the man they were sure walked on water as he sinks like an ugly, slimy stone.
So who will be left standing in the middle with the processed-cheese-food-product that is Trump? Maybe Ivanka, perhaps Jared, maybe Don Jr. and Eric.
But when all is said and done, even that’s iffy at best.
