QOTD: Trump in Context

“You have to keep it going, OK?” said Trump to the most handsome man he’d ever seen. “Never, ever, say that,” he continued, blowing a kiss to the man in the mirror. “That kind of sentence gets you into real trouble.” Brazil’s Temer uttered those exact words, now he’s headed toward impeachment. “But it’s not what you actually say that matters, it’s the context,” The Donald reminded himself.

“I bragged about grabbing pussy and got 53% of the white female vote,” reminisced our President. “But I was joking with a buddy on a bus – that was the context.” Trump applied another dusting of hairspray, running the comb, sweeping just so. “Hillary called my supporters a basket of deplorables - racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic. She said it at an LGBT gala in New York City. Extravagant, smug. How’s that for context?” he asked himself, smiling. “And she lost in a tremendous, huge landslide, history’s greatest political defeat - surprise, surprise.” The Donald checked his watch, Airforce One warming up. Off to Saudi Arabia, the world’s biggest arms importer, terrorist exporter. “Hell, I called the Pope disgraceful, no one cared. Why? He insulted me first. Context. And so what if I asked nut-job Comey to let things go with Flynn? Every one of my voters would’ve asked the same thing, out drinking beers with their local police chief.” Context. “They love me for it, because I say what they want to say, I do what they wish they could. Like firing the corner-office nut-job because he irritated me. He bugged everybody, they all wanted his head.

Now the Democrats and mainstream media cry fake Comey tears – just because I killed him. But they despised him when he reopened crooked Hillary’s investigation.” Trump winked goodbye. “There’s never good context for hypocrisy. And my supporters see right through these losers.”
