So amazing

I’m working on restructuring my neuro-processes actively to minimize negativity, so I try to restrict my Kleptocrat intake. However, there have been a couple of highlights from his Big Adventure in the Mid-East and Israel (as he framed it when he arrived in Tel Aviv).

First—he was clearly in his element in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, where he was surrounded by real despots, given gold presents and able to bond with other male supremacists who do not permit any form of free speech. For once, he was allowed at the local cool kids’ table, and he was pathetically happy about it. (Albeit exhausted, we’re told.

Here’s the Kleptocrat’s:


Man—it only lacks “have fun this summer” to flesh out a full yearbook scribble.

RightI'm off to restructure my neural paths. Peace out. Or, as the White House Press Office might say, peach out.
