Complaining at random
A little vignette of what it’s like to play at Being the Government with Trump in the room – a slice from a longer piece about ogod ogod it’s chaos he’s so nuts he blows off everything anyone suggests to him ogod ogod.
And now, the little vignette:
Aides often become frustrated with the President’s short attention span. One official described Trump as frequently meandering from the topic at hand in meetings, particularly if he believes the positions being aired by his advisers differ from his own point of view. He’ll stall sessions with non-sequiturs, complaining at random about Amazon’s tax status or proclaiming that he’s only visited Russia once, for the Miss Universe pageant in 2013.
We all know that guy, right? It can be a relative, it can be an acquaintance, it can be a guy who corners you at a party – but we all know that guy. We know that guy who is numbingly voluble yet has nothing to say. We know that guy who obsesses weirdly over three or four outrages and never makes any progress.
It sounds Alzheimersy and it may be, but it may be just one of those empty-headed but nevertheless opinionated and talkative dudes who are always busy explaining something to somebody somewhere.
Trump is the best indication we have that the return of the Lord is nigh. The signs are all there…!
TRUMP IS ALSO A MAJOR AGENT FOR CLIMATE CHANGE…! The signs are there…! The signs are there, I tell you…!
THE SIGNS ARE THERE…!

I still feel the seers let us down a little…
… I mean, yes, they warned us the apocalypse would be a time of conflict and horror…
… but no one really mentioned how appallingly tacky it would be.
“… but no one really mentioned how appallingly tacky it would be.”
Yes, “Obama-as-antichrist” had a certain cachet about it that “Trump-as-antichrist” never will.
‘That guy’ at the party is often in an alcoholic blackout; conscious and making decisions, but with short-term memory paralyzed. He keeps repeating himself, or losing track of the subject, because he has no connection to what he said even 30 seconds before.
