I must be a moron...

Because…BECAUSE…. Many years ago I had a meeting in Seattle and in the cab from the airport to downtown I saw two 747’s wrapped in green something-or-other. When I got to the hotel I wound up talking to a guy whose brother was a Boeing employee who wasn’t working on the two presidential aircraft but he was saying that it was taking years and years to specially equip these planes with all kinds of technology and defenses and safety measures.

So of course, this guy in what’s left of the White House is flying the airborne equivalent of The Reflecting Pool and it is not up to snuff by definition. But that’s fine. Because that’s why. Because Trump.

If any Democratic President had accepted this plane as a “gift”, articles of impeachment would have been drawn up faster than you could say “Landing gear down”. If he had flown in this relatively unsafe plane, Fox News would have”Tan Suit” the issue, claiming that this threatens the very sanctity of the Nation, that this endangers the very office of the Presidency, once again implying that Democrats do not deserve to hold that, or any other, office.

So why am I a moron? I am constantly surprised how low this Presidency can go, while not comprehending fundamentally that there is no nadir. The depths are arguably infinite and we are accelerating during this plunge.
