I woke up happy today...then I saw the headlines.
Ivanka Trump is selling the bracelet she wore for her 60 Minutes interview for
$10,000. Queen Victoria only wore a garment once, then she donated it to the poor. That is classy. Selling your bracelet because it was on television is just gauche. kind of "Mother Theresa vs Home Shopping Network".
Trump refers to his cabinet picks as "finalists", as if winning the election is just another episode of The Apprentice. What he needs is a reality check, or possibly a royalty check, if his daughter is forced to pimp her jewelry.
Trump is filling up presidential appointed positions with his family members,you know, those highly qualified people who run his business, the business that has gone bankrupt 4 times. I am having Billy Carter flashbacks.
Now Ivana Trump wants to be appointed ambassador to the Czech Republic. Makes sense to me. Since I was born in America that qualifies me to be the ambassador to the United States. How hard can it be, right?
Hell, how hard can any of this be? Trump is treating this as his own personal upstart corp., surrounding himself with "yes men" and family (redundant I am aware).
What is equally disturbing is that these bits of news were headlines; The secondary stories were
"6 Utah High School Students Stabbed", "Person Fatally Shot At Oklahoma school" and a few more. Where are the priorities here?
And so it begins. From his calm to still inarticulate manner on 60 Minutes to his fashioning himself into some kind of mafia godfather, lets sit back now and watch as our nation unravels before our eyes.
