He's the "King of the World!"

I finally figured out why I haven’t been able to figure out just what Donald J. Trump is doing. I mean, some of the things he gets into have nothing to do with being President of the United States.

Things like trying to tell private universities what to teach, how to hire and punishing them by withholding research money that goes to finding cures to diseases, among other remarkable discoveries.

Or, renaming international bodies of water like the Gulf of America or, today, the Gulf of Arabia, by fiat.

How about deciding Canada needs to be our 51st state? Or Greenland needs to be owned by the United States or declaring retaking of the Panama Canal?

How else can the President and his family make millions of dollars by signing real estate agreements in foreign countries, making profits off it while he serves as President? No president has done that before!

Or, displaying his for-sale red heads on the Cabinet table during a Cabinet meeting in the Cabinet room? No president has ever done, or likely thought of doing that before!

Additionally, no U.S. president has said “I don’t know” when asked if he needs to follow the U.S. Constitution – a document he has sworn an oath to up twice!

No president has sold cars in the White House driveway nor has he ever sold his own crypto from the Oval Office!

No president has extorted business people by threatening to hold up mergers simply to punish them to get improved treatment from the media outlets they own (praise be to “60 Minutes” for its weekly stories on Trump overreach even in the face of its owner caving to Trump’s demands).

In just the last few days he has threatened tariffs on movies made out of the country to supposedly bring film-making back to America, he is threatening to engage in whether college athletes are paid or not, and he has called for the return of Alcatraz, a museum, as a maximum-security prison.

No, my friends, his goal wasn’t to be the President of the United States, his goal is to be the King of the World, and maybe even star in the remake of Titanic.

Nothing else explains the lunacy and over-reaching of his presidency.
