Sycophants Kissing Up

F02D5240-4B54-4F74-9EB5-54F3360E0A08“I’m so tired of how those sycophants on Fox News kowtow to Donald Trump all the time,” Alan complained to his coworker, Zeke. “They’re always kissing his ass.

“You still can’t cope with the fact that Trump won the election, can you?” Zeke said.

“No, that’s not it at all,” Alan objected. “It’s just that they are overly zealous in their support for him. They ignore the basic truth and are reticent to say anything negative about the guy.”

“So turn off Fox News and watch something else,” Zeke suggested.

“I would,” Alan said. “but you know how the boss is. He won’t allow us to tune the TV to anything other than Fox News.”

“That’s what happens when you take a job in the Trump administration,” Zeke replied.


Okay, I promise that this is my last post about Donald Trump. Well, last post about DonaldTrump today, anyway.

      Thanks. I just read your response to my kowtow prompt. Excellent. You caught exactly how many of us are feeling.

    Don’t stop now, you’re on a roll!
    Add to that the interesting result of Cohen’s court appearance, there seems to be two thoughts going around. If you are republican Trump can’t be hauled into court.
    If you are anything else the talk is impeachment.

    Curious he’s gone very quiet. I wonder why??

      He’s probably strategizing with his advisors and lawyers. No doubt he’ll soon be tweeting up a storm.
