Not a president

"The man" reaches out for help
It’s not a bad thing to realize when you’re in way over your head, and you know, ask for some help from people who at least managed not to try to overthrow the government or just completely fuck themselves and the whole world with a stupid fucking war you have no idea how to fight.

Now, of course “the man” cannot admit to anybody that he is asking that guy for help. I mean—come on—that guy has been his nemesis forever. But it makes sense that his nemesis would agree to the clandestine meetup in some dark alley, because most former presidents are willing to offer the current boss advice if and when they are asked for it. You don’t have to like or agree with the current chief executive of the USA. You just go when and where you have to, and you tell him exactly what you think he needs to hear.

Fortunately, I am able to let you hear how that went. I think you’ll agree the nemesis definitely told “the man” exactly what he needed to hear, and what we all would love to be able to tell him. I mean, we’re all Americans, or something I suppose. We’re in this together—just not all in extraordinarily privileged circumstances enabling us to mass-murder people on a whim, while bragging about ending an entire nation, and totally fucking over (once again) the people we were elected to serve. And the whole world too.

That’s gotta feel pretty special, right?
