In order to save yourself from the future wrath of your boss, I think you need to make a few things clear to him before he takes office.
Weve all seen the way Donny-J explodes every time Alec Baldwin portrays him on SNL. Now would be a good time to give him the heads-up that come January 20th, he will be the butt of every monologue delivered by late-night talk show hosts across the country, as well as like shows around the globe. It will be scathing, it will be humiliating and above all else, it will be relentless.
You might also advise him to avoid stand-up comics in the years to come. He will have his pompous ass bent, folded, stapled and mutilated on stages and on TV every single night, without respite. So if you catch him trying to watch any stand-ups from now on, grab the remote and change the channel. If you dont, his head might explode and if youve ever watched CSI, you know how hard it is to collect even that small an amount of brain matter from faux-gold-encrusted furniture.
Oh, and the newspapers cancel any subscriptions now. I doubt that your guy reads them or even can read them but better safe than sorry. Its not that I think many journalists still write for newspapers these days, but even the worst of them wont be able to resist the low-hanging fruit that Donnie offers every day. His tweets alone are good for at least two columns of WTF? per week and lets be honest, Kellyanne, even the dumbest journalist eventually sees the light at the end of their paycheck and acknowledges that being anti-Trump is waaaay more reader-grabbing (and easier) than trying to translate his word-salad bullshit into coherent English.
Now comes the BIG problem the internet. I am going to assume that Donnie knows how to use a computer which means I also have to assume that he owns one of those custom-made keyboards for people with tiny hands/fingers. So taking both as a given, you might want to distract him with a shiny object (hard to do, given his home décor) before he logs-on. He is NOT going to like what he sees believe me, bigly. Political bloggers will eviscerate him; political message boards will be full of posters nailing his ass to the wall on a never-ending basis. He will be scorned, ridiculed, laughed at. His every word will show him for what he is an idiot. And his every display of being an idiot will be available for all to see/read 24/7.
And then there are the polls. And brace yourself, Kellyanne, because they will not be kind to Trumpelthinskin. In fact, I can promise you that they will be brutal. When those promised jobs dont materialize, when the Trumpettes realize theyve been had, when they realize that their Obamacare may no longer be available and/or their elderly parents cant survive on their now-gutted SS checks, theyre going to be a tad pissed-off. In other words, Donnie-J may be looking at entering the Top 100 charts at #2,475,764 with an anchor.
So just a word to the not-so-wise, Kellyanne. I believe it is in your own best interest to let your boss know whats coming. He doesnt strike me as someone mentally stable enough to deal with it, so you might want to cushion the blows by sitting him down and explaining that although he somehow thinks he will be untouchable once sworn into office, the truth is that he will actually become the target of every free-thinking person on the planet, every political cartoonist, every late-night show host, every non-bigot, non-racist, non-xenophobe, non-misogynist on the planet joined by every disgruntled former Trumpette who finally realizes that theyve been played.
So now is the time for you to explain to TinyHands that the nation, and the world, will be on his back, sunrise to sunset, every day he is in office. And at the same time, you can explain to him that there is NOTHING he can do to stop it. He can huff, he can puff, he can threaten to blow all of us down but the fact is he cant.
Your boss is in for an extremely bumpy ride. For your own sake, you might want to make sure hes buckled-up before the shitstorm hits because its going to be MASSIVE, its going to be everywhere, and its going to send up a stench that can't be ignored.

(9,033 posts)all those votes were stolen from Hillary? That they were her votes? Really?
I think it far more likely those people would simply have not voted at all. But, if they didn't stay home, probably Stein's voters would have gone for Hillary,...and Gary Johnson's (3 x more) for Trump. Same result, bigger margins in the rust belt.
Stop blaming voters for not being inspired by an uninspiring candidate.

I don't think we'll (or she will) find it as funny as we go on.

(81,304 posts)I hope it's everything you say. Hell, I'm even starting to wonder if this brings Jon Stewart and David Letterman out of retirement? Most of the media, I have no hope for. But the late night comedy monologues and SNL and political cartoonists WILL overrun the joint.
And for that, at least, I can't wait!

(17,181 posts)I look forward to the reunification under President Pussygrabber.
At least for the two or three weeks until the 2020 presidential campaigns start. And until we're all sued, jointly and severally, for all the mean things we say, especially after P.P. drafts all attorneys into the new "Presidential Ego Protection Squad" (aka "PEP Squad" to file suit against people who call him things like "President Pussygrabber."
It'll be great fun for those still able to afford an Internet connection!
