Donald Trump is the Yosemite Sam of presidents. If you remember the western antics of Bugs Bunny, his constant nemesis was Yosemite Sam. Yosemite fashioned himself to be a gunslinger and would regularly identify himself as, "the meanest, toughest, rip-roaringest hombre that ever packed a six-shooter".
Yosemite Sam would fire his two six-shooters wildly in all directions rarely hitting his intended target. The guns were a show of temper often resulting in him losing his clothes or being humiliated. Are we beginning to see the analogy?
Our very own president Yosemite Sam, aka Yosemite Trump, is quick to act without assessing the consequences. He rarely plans beyond his own temperament which is erratic and volatile. He will threaten tariffs, shoot at boats, invade a country to snatch its leader, bomb another country to kill their leaders, remove medical benefits, and make promises that are empty. He thinks he is a “tough guy” but he regularly ends up like our cartoon gunslinger. The problem here is that, not only does he look the fool, but our once proud country is also now a laughingstock on the world stage. Who better to manage our country than a man who filed for bankruptcy six times and partied with Jeffrey Epstein and his girls.
He removed the president of Venezuela on the pretext of him being a drug czar, but then stated that we would “retake” our oil. If he had wanted Venezuelan oil, perhaps he should have consulted with those in the oil business who would have told him why they wouldn’t heavily invest in an unstable country.
Most recently, he bombed Iran without a plan beyond killing many of its leaders. He didn’t coordinate this plan with anyone save our military and Israel, which left American citizens to deal with running to escape 14 countries in the Middle East to avoid Iran’s retaliatory fire. Shoot first, plan later.
He placed more than a million Americans at risk in Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, the West Bank, Gaza, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen. U.S. citizens in Riyadh and the key commercial cities of Dhahran and Jeddah were told to shelter in place. Yosemite Trump strikes again.
No coordination with the State Department or Congress. It would seem that our FBI director was too busy slamming beers in the Olympic locker room to know anything either. He returned home to fire a dozen counterintelligence staffers who specialized in global intelligence and monitoring threats from Iran.
Yes, the FBI's CI-12 personnel including their section chief were dismissed just days before Trump and his “Operation Epic Fury,” bombed Iran. The excuse given was that this group dared to investigate Donald Trump’s retention of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago. Perhaps they knew that Iran didn’t really pose a significant ballistic missile or nuclear threat to the U.S. Yosemite Trump doesn’t want to be bothered by facts, he just wants to shoot stuff. To quote the original Yosemite, "I'm a-thinkin'... and my head hurts."
