Radical Measures

There still seems no end in sight for the discharge of fragrant revelations concerning denizens of the Trumpster swamp. John Kelly, a retired general who was promoted to chief of the White House staff after the Trumpster tweet-sacked his predecessor, apparently had such confidence in his employer that he sneaked out and bought a copy of a 2017 bestseller, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President. Besides being flawed by the lack of personal contact between the experts and their analysand, the book seemingly pays little or no attention to the role of the Trumpster's hydrophobic head-tribble, whose radioactive defecations exert such a salutary effect upon what pass for mental processes in the Tangerine Cranium. Nevertheless, Kelly managed to equip himself with concepts such as "inflated ego" and "pathological liar," which provided a useful guide to the head-tribble's more whimsical spurts and splatters. Given those levels of intellectual achievement for which his administration is justly revered, one of the more astounding allegations to emerge about the White House under the Trumpster régime must surely be the claim that at least one of the senior staff was capable of reading a book.
