Scaramucci is a head case himself, but I'm enjoying reading his take-downs. And while I doubt this will happen, it's at least fascinating to witness the thought process that the Mooch has employed to assess the Douche-in-Chief's emotional intelligence:

“He’s got the self-worth in terms of his self-esteem of a small pigeon. It’s a very small pigeon. Okay,” Scaramucci continued about Trump. “And so you think this guy’s gonna look at those poll numbers and say — he’s not gonna be able to handle that humiliation.”

Anthony Scaramucci Predicts Exact Month Donald Trump Will Abandon 2020 Race | HuffPost

“He’s gonna drop out of the race because it’s gonna become very clear. Okay, it’ll be March of 2020. He’ll likely drop out by March of 2020. It’s gonna become very clear that it’s impossible for him to win,” the former (short-lived) White House communications director said in an interview with Vanity Fair published Friday.

You'd think he may have a point... especially with more crimes coming out of NY State investigators that Trump has no control over. You'd think if Trump is smart, he'll be safely tucked away in his dacha under Vlad's personal protection before he tenders his letter of resignation.

But no. If there's one thing we've learned about 44, it's that he likes to be unpredictable. So I'm just not buying it. I think we'll probably end up having to drag Donnie-boy out of the White House in a straitjacket. Even if he loses badly, he would try to say the election was 'rigged', that millions of illegal aliens voted, that the Chinese were interfering in the election, that the Democrats were playing dirty pool.

He'd probably try to use an Executive Order to declare the election null and void, and proclaim himself to be President-for-Life. Or some other last-minute shock that even George RR Martin couldn't think up with his sick mind.

Besides, consider whom we're talking about here. It's the Mooch. The Mooch has the Mooch's best interests at heart. More likely the Mooch has a book that will drop out in March. And gotta keep all those TV appearance fees rolling in... Right?

I dunno about that. I think that George R.R. Martin can imagine one king-hell of a lot. From the novels that gave us Game of Thrones to the Wild Cards super-anthology world?

As for DT-45...we do need to plan for those worse-case scenarios. All of us, across the planet, we need to get ready. And to be ready to seize upon whatever opportunities the Manhattan Vandal gives us despite himself.

Kinda seems like a plant to me. Not guaranteeing it - but if I were the left I wouldn't bring him to the secret meetings.

Those leftists with their secret meetings... let me tell you that President Donald's meetings are much more secret. In fact they are the secretest meetings ever. Their secret meetings are so secret that only Vlad and Donald know about them, excepting of course for the tweets. Those leftists are losers, and all those folk in secret meetings who vote for the Democrats show a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty to secret meetings all over the world.

The problem is this sort of thing writes itself. Just when you think it couldn't get any more absurd... it does.

DAILY QUOTE:
"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
