Reading Woodward's Book WTF

Last edited Sun Sep 23, 2018, 11:50 AM - Edit history (1)

I can only describe it this way. Picture your concert going days. You have to make a run to the Port-a-Cans. You think it's going to be bad and you brace yourself. When you open the door you're confronted by a totally disgusting uninhabitable HAZMAT scene. That is what Woodward describes. And we are locked in that toilet with Drumpt. For now.

Sorry for the description this morning.

I'm truly not sure how much I can handle.

I am so worried and fearful of Trump finally finding an excuse to fire Rosenstein which would, of course, end Mr. Mueller's investigation. My only solace is Mueller is not a stupid man, and am certain there is a Plan B, and C, D ...

I haven't even opened it yet, as I knew I would be on the chaise for the rest of the time it took to read it. I'm trying to get my projects done so I don't have any interruptions. That's my treat for getting caught up.

Staff to Drumpt: The world is round.

Drumpt: No, it's not. I'm a stable genius. Your "facts" are biased against me.

The end.

My car is a 2007 and has a cd player. I have quite a commute to and from work, so I've been entertaining myself by listening to podcasts, NPR, etc. Well, Amazon screwed up and were sending me the Audible link which I can't access while I'm driving. After getting some run around from them, I finally got a refund. Fortunately. I found the cd's at my local Barnes and Noble. I picked them up yesterday. There at least nine discs. I'll start listening on my drive tomorrow. I'll have to balance it with some happy music and some lighthearted podcasts..

Isn't it interesting how his own attempted rapist disaster of a pick for the SC has knocked Trumps own scandals off the front pages for awhile?
