“There is nothing clever or funny about this image, Mr. President….don’t mock us,” the cardinals wrote.
We must all adapt to a new America built in the image of Trump whether we like it or not. Americans themselves are having to adjust to this new episode, and so must we.
Donald Trump is a rare book of controversy, meant to be read but not understood. This president is a perplexing deviation from anything before or after him. We are in uncharted territory, ladies and gentlemen!
What went through your mind when Donald Trump’s carefully calibrated city of Gaza, purified of all the ragamuffins and Hamas elements, stood glorious under the blue sky, his golden statue sun-bathing in the holy land?
How that fantasy city, which exists only in Donald Trump’s mind succesfully provoked sleepless nights in the palaces of Arabia, and frantically resulted in a conferences of five Arab foreign ministers where articles of affirmation for Palestinian rights of settlement were adopted and re-adopted in a major apprehension of Trump — is a wonder.
And yet, this fanciful city was only a capricious whim which like all other grandiose schemes rise and fall, thus meriting no further action than laughter for its abundance of loquacity! The world is over-thinking Trump, l say!
The other day, when we were all prayerfully considering a worthy successor to Pope Francis, wherein everyone was religiously rooting for a pope from his home region, Trump contrived to robe himself in the garment of a new Pope of the Papacy — the People’s Pope!
Subsequently, the White House outdoored an AI apparition of the new pope clad in his pontificate, looking holy and very sanctified, and altogether priestly in his exalted apparition.
It was an instant hit. Within minutes, Pope President Donald Trump had gone viral!
What shall we call him, a genius or a pure pope of mischief?
And do you laugh or weep at the rare image of His Holiness President Pope Trump vicariously articulating the homily before the congregation of the Holy Sea and making the sign of the cross helter-skelter for mockery?
But as it turned out, the conclave of bishops was in no mood for presidential fantasies and frivolities. No sooner had he placed the papal ring on his finger than the relentless popes fired a salvo of offence at the new pontiff, muddying his robes in the process and completely blowing him out of the water.
“There is nothing clever or funny about this image, Mr. President,” the popes lambasted. “We just buried our beloved Pope Francis and the cardinals are about to enter a solemn conclave to elect a new successor of St. Peter. Don’t mock us!” they wrote.
I told you we all overthink Trump, the cardinals too!
By this time, the AI pope had long been to vespers and was probably seated at dinner with his female entourage when the cardinals posted their plea.
I can imagine Trump and his companions giggling, jumping, cheering, laughing, dancing and having a great merriment at the success of his fantastic prank! He got the cardinals exactly where he wanted them— their holimessess!
“Well, maybe, l am a worthy candidate, that’s why they take me so serious. l am very qualified— more qualified than all of them put together,” l imagine him showboating, and screaming everywhere in wine and papal laughter!
Thankfully, the Democrats have withdrawn the folly of overthinking Trump and have left him alone to establish the Kingdom of America in his own image by his own terms in exchange for some peace and good behaviour in the Capitol!
The Democrats wasted our time with tough talk about impeaching Trump. Investigations were conducted, dockets compiled, fines and sentences all had their turn, but Trump remains Trump, illusive, indeterminable, firmly in control, powerful, fighting the universities and the courts, China, France and anyone standing in his way. In short, he got America where he wanted it!
In like manner, Trump humiliated his fellow G7 leaders nicely at their summit in Canada. After threatening to annex Canada (and someone won an election after promising to match Trump boot for boot—indeed Carney should be thanking Trump for making him Prime Minister) he found himself in Kananaskis.
Trump complained about everything from the moment he arrived till he packed his bags and left less than a day after arriving with an entourage of over 1000 officers.
It was “a very big mistake” to kick Putin out of the group, he grumbled, and it won’t be a bad idea for China to be present, he lamented.
Then just when the leaders were settling down for business, Trump declares his intention to leave, of course, Israel is at war! Zelensky must wait. Iran is a new client!
And since his return to the “WhiteHoucy” he has posted and reposted comments about Iran as if he himself led Isreal to war!
The new world order is afoot. Sorry for poor democratic African nations. You either come to the table with a plan for a deal, or have a royal aircraft gift for the president.
Stay your somewhere in peace if you are poor and never cross the path of America!
