Jon Stewart Blows Doors

Trump’s Executive Orders

Bulls—t! BOOM! DONE!

By Eileen Fleming

The first ten days in the era of Trump brought US twenty Executive Orders.

Jon Stewart blessed America on Tuesday night’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert by portraying Donald J. Trump.

With a dead animal on his head and a very long red tie, Jon Stewart skewered Donald J. Trump as he read a few new Executive Orders including:

America now finally has an official language.

The official language of America is bulls—t

I, Donald J. Trump, have instructed my staff to speak only in bulls–t.

Bulls–t all the time. Immersion, it’s the only way to be fluent…

I, Donald J. Trump, am exhausting.

The reason that I, Donald J. Trump, am exhausting is that every instinct and fiber of my pathological self-regard calls me to abusive power…

I, Donald J. Trump, am exhausting because it is going to take relentless stamina, vigilance and every institutional check and balance this great country can muster to keep me, -Donald J. Trump-, from going full Palpatine, with the lightning coming out of the fingertips and ‘fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate….

No one action will be adequate, all action will be necessary, and if we do not allow Donald Trump to exhaust our fight and somehow come out of this presidency calamity-less and constitutionally, partially intact, then I, Donald J. Trump, will have demonstrated the greatness of America, just not the way I thought I was going to.

In Heroes, Muses and the Saga of Mordechai Vanunu, I wrote:

A hero is a person who is admired for great or brave acts or fine qualities.

As a verb, to muse is to consider something thoughtfully with careful consideration and to exercise the mind or one’s power of reason in order to make inferences, decisions and arrive at a solution or discernment.

As a noun, muse refers to a person who is a source of artistic inspiration.

In mythology, the Muses were nine goddesses who symbolized the arts and sciences. The story goes that the Muses were the daughter of Zeus the God of the Sky and Mnemosyne the personification of memory.

If you muse about something, you’re giving it serious thought and you may muse on certain ideas for years.

Jon Stewart is a muse and hero of mine because he has introduced a myriad of important topics to American stoners and entertainment seekers by doing what The Media should be about: Seek and Report!

When I heard Jon Stewart say “Evil is relatively rare. Ignorance is epidemic and the cure for that is journalism and expression” my dream that Jon would address USA policies that collude in Israel’s nuclear deceptions began to feel less surreal and actually possible…

But it is what it is, and so THIS AMERICAN’s current mission is focused on getting this request TO:

Donald J. Trump to PLEASE sign an Executive Order establishing every June 8 t be known as USS LIBERTY REMEMBRANCE DAY.
