Donald Trump - First Expatriate POTUS?Honolulu - 11/4/17
After adding two days to the previous schedule for the President's much-dreaded Asian trip, and facing an uncertain future, the DOTARD has announced that his overseas visit will now last indefinitely. "I alone will decide when I return to the United States. With Air Force One as my 'White House in the Air,' I can rule the world and order nuclear strikes on North Korea, regardless of where I am. Trust me on that!" the erstwhile national leader declared early on Saturday (or is it Sunday where he is?) morning.
With Robert Mueller's investigation team breathing down his neck, it appears that the Commander in Chief feels more secure without a fixed base for his shenanigans. "I hate to say it, but they love me in Japan. And in the Philippines, especially. I can camp out at major airports and military bases. Mueller can try to find me, but I have the best plane. A tremendously fast plane. I won't make it easy for him, believe me!" Trump continued.
This unprecedented governance while "on the road," so to speak, has led to concern from Republican members of Congress. Paul Ryan, Speaker of the House, mused, "How can we know what out Supreme Leader wants us to do? We're being left to hang here in DC." Al Franken, the junior Senator from Minnesota, quipped in response, "Hang may be the operant word soon."
More details as Trump's itinerary for stopping places is determined. We understand that Outer Mongolia may be on the list of places The Donald is considering visiting for a lengthy period. How well this all works out is yet to be imagined, however.
