‘Bobby Three Sticks’ Versus The Pathological Liar: ‘Hustle Bobby’
*************
Excerpted from Maureen Dowd's latest in The New York Times
As we contemplate crime and punishment in the Trump circle, it should be noted that our Russia-besotted president does share some traits with Dostoyevsky’s spiraling protagonist, Rodion Raskolnikov.
Both men are naifs who arrive and think they have the right to transgress. Both are endlessly fascinating psychological studies: self-regarding, with Napoleon-style grandiosity, and self-incriminating. Both are consumed wit
I love the “this isn’t some tiff over a casino” line, Maureen is always a hoot and one of the most honest writers around. Bobby “three sticks” is moving fast for this sort of investigation and trump does not understand what is about to hit him squarely in his “lie infested life”. You get one, 1, I, only one chance to tell the truth to Mr. Mueller and his grand juries. Can and will any or all of the rats running from this sinking ship talk, count on it.
Sooo embarrassing
DiMaggio never got over Monroe…Gable pined his life away after losing Lombard…Donald had Roy Cohn’s over the top Red Scare nastiness tattooed on his psyche at a very vulnerable age. Cohn must have felt he had been given the perfect pupil to plague the world with after he had passed. It also gave Roy a leg up on God since he proved that the meek do not always inherit the Earth.
This will end very badly and hopefully our Constitution is upheld. I like the above article about “how scary Mueller’s dream team is”, and the article below describes some very realistic scenarios of a slow-motion train wreck that we will see.
