 the trump show gets wackier every day, and mr giraldi gives you some highlights with commentary; 

 

The past week has seen the usual mixture of developments flowing from the United States government that make one either want to laugh or cry. On the humor side, though with more than a bit of extreme disgust, there are the latest moves by the megalomaniac-in-chief in the White House to slap his name and picture all across the nation and even on maps depicting the rest of the world. His latest foray was to drop into an otherwise innocuous speech a suggestion that he might be renaming the much-in-the-news Strait of Hormuz after himself, suggesting he might be calling it the Strait of Trump after the US takes it away from the Iranians. This, of course, comes on top of the renaming of the US Institute of Peace and the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts to include his name and anticipated impending renamings of places like Virginia’s Dulles International Airport. There is also the soon-to-start construction of the huge Arch’ De’Trump outside Arlington National Cemetery. One might also assume that the destruction of formerly integral parts of the White House and the construction of a monstrous gilded ballroom will also ultimately bear the name of Trump.

What makes renaming Hormuz particularly of note, like the planned Riviera Resort Trump on the ruins of Gaza, is that it is not geographically within or next to the United States. But it must be observed that The Donald, who runs foreign policy based on his “feelings, might not see that as a problem after he unleashes the 82nd Airborne to invade Iran as early as next week. It is somewhat akin to his renaming the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America by executive order with an eye to invading Venezuela and, coming up soon, Cuba. Even though the Gulf of Mexico renaming lacks the glamor of the Trump label, that can certainly be changed through another executive order...........more.......
