Is Trump in control of anything anymore?

The fact Trump got jimmied up the ass with a hot poker stick while screaming out "can I have some more border wall please?" when he cluelessly signed the appropriations bill that has zero of ANYTHING he wanted....well, that was a lesson.

Now the tweeting and lying about the Wall being built is beyond pathetic, even his Cult must see all that.

Even Fox will not carry that rancid water for this massive lie because the fact there is the zero money for new construction is in writing, right there in the bill! The bill he signed!

Sure, the hiring and the firing and then the hiring of Fox TV "personalities", yes men and women, is all quite amusing and even startling in the case of warmonger Bolton - but if his own party pulled the rug out from under him on budgetary matters, which they did, what other rugs have been pulled including taking away one man control of the Red Button and ALL war orders he might make to shore up his "worst President* ever polling?

Trump is not in control of the American money machine which is evidence he is not in control of the war machine either. Just saying.

Sleep well.
