Daggers out for Chelsea
By I confess that I don’t pay close attention to Trump’s mouth noises. It’s true he helps prove my theory that Republicans are rapidly approaching the point where they can only communicate in shouted buzzwords and phrases – “America Jobs! Terror Gun Grab! Illegal Wall Build!” – but listening to that racket is a chore for the uninitiated.
Apparently one of the things I missed is that Trump has it in for Chelsea Clinton. So says TrumpStan Roger Stone in press release about jiggery pokery with voting machines (link goes to Stone’s website).
I think that the stakes are so high – and Donald Trump has made it pretty clear that if he is elected president he will seek the prosecution of Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea – that they would do anything necessary to remain in power.
I assume the bit about Trump’s intent is true, and I suspect this is the real reason Chelsea is on his list.
The real estate mogul was the sort of person who, though not an actual friend, still aspired to attend Chelsea’s wedding, which he clearly considered a prestigious event.”
When Trump didn’t receive an invitation, he reportedly called Doug Band, an adviser to the former president.
“I’m supposed to be at the wedding, Doug,” Trump said. “But I didn’t receive the invitation, and I need to know where to go.”
Conason writes that Band knew Trump wasn’t on the list and suggested he contact Chelsea Clinton for directions.
“At that point, the would-be wedding crasher apparently gave up,” Conason writes.
And he vowed that he would one day run for president and have every member of the family thrown in prison … Never mind, that’s too much like a coherent plan.
[I wasn’t going to post the song, but I found a version that’s more annoying than the original. De rien.]
