They Are Boarding Up DC

There is no surer sign that Trump has this in the bag. Stores and restaurants boarding up and moving on ahead of the obvious massive layoffs about to hit the most corrupt and inefficient jurisdiction in American history. Families will have to move out of their potholes because not enough drivers will fall in to financially maintain them. There will be no one left to maintain the walls and fences that make our brutally corrupt Congress tenable. Who will feed the troops guarding them from righteous citizens' rage? Now that DC is no longer significant, who will come visit the monuments and museums?

This is actually good news. Anyone who has ever lived in the DC area knows that the city was built in a wetland. A literal swamp. Being ecology minded, I have lobbied for years to remove the buildings and restore the glorious, pristine Okefenokee ambiance spoiled by all of those imperialist invaders. No more Cheneys or Pelosis or Schiffs or Wrays or Comeys or, well, it's a long, pugnacious list.

Save DC. Save the planet. Vote Trump.
