  1. Scummo’s just acting out in his inveterate sociopathic DSM5-infested way because NY state has effectively placed a fatal Damocles sword of accessibility to his tax returns, should the congressional/court soap opera not to successfully countermand the sleazy WH moratorium on obeying legal subpoenas. He’s fucked bc NY is the armory where Dems get their nuclear oppo during what promises to be next year’s filth-drenched fastigiun of an election fight – and Orangehole, Inc. has no recourse to prevent it.

    Of course, the markets will have begun crashing no later than mid-autumn with an eerie parallel-feels Great Bush Recession redux scenario circa 2007-2008 – so Scummo’s losing the dearth of cognitively functional portion of his puerile mind about it, given his greasy commandeering of mostly Obama’s secular bull success.

    And btw- he can EO anything he wants out of his steatopygic lard ass – it means nothing bc it all ends up in court. Any EO census perfidy has a maggot-in-hell’s chance of coming to fruition bc of the temporal noose on the litigative complexities.

    So what does Babyman Scummo do when he even his Lilliputian cranial contents are able to perform complex logistical probabilities (wherefore most people call it obviousness…) to arrive at the grim conclusion that his census redlining – or wall, or Saudi arms-for-Jared treachery, etc. – are doomed? He defecates on American democracy, propriety, Constitutional law via a massive twitter ooze.

    Not amused but not worried either. Scummo’s fucked – bookmark it.

  2. He’s moving from a dictator wannabe to dictator sycophant to trashing the Constitution whenever he thinks its for his personal benefit.
    Putin must be pleased.

  3. Man, that last string of tweets will go down in history! Too bad Jonathan Winters isn’t still around to play Bluto in the movie; I can hear him delivering those lines. It’s a Mad, Mad World…..
