Other things Donald Trump's wise leadership prevented in 2017

This is a Genuine General Secretary Trump Tweet...

Donald J. Trump? Verified account @realDonaldTrump

Since taking office I have been very strict on Commercial Aviation. Good news - it was just reported that there were Zero deaths in 2017, the best and safest year on record!
7:13 AM - 2 Jan 2018


Well...if Donald Trump was able to stop commercial airlines from having any fatal accidents, what else did he prevent?

There were Zero dirigible explosions in 2017.
Zero late deliveries by the Pony Express.
Zero steamship boilers exploded.
Zero White House officials were terminated without probable cause.*
Zero nuclear missile silos caved in.
Zero good bills made their way through Congress.
Zero competent, reasonable judges were given lifetime appointments to the federal bench.
Zero well-thought-out tweets were sent from the "realDonaldTrump" Twitter account.
His sons killed Zero dodos, passenger pigeons, tyrannosaurs, great auks or wooly mammoths on any of their hunting expeditions - though not from lack of trying.
And, of course...
Zero Nazi rallies were conducted within 120 miles of the front porch of the White House.
(Oh wait. Scratch that. There was that one...)

All tolled, I'd say Trump had a pretty good year with lots of zeroes.

* There were perfectly good reasons to terminate the battalion of White House staffers who DID get terminated.

This man is clearly delusional. I just have to shake my damn head. So far I am ranking this particular Trump claim of taking credit for no commercial airline deaths to be tied for first place with the need for windows in the wall so we won't be knocked in the head by flying 40 pound bags of mexican dope being heaved over, for first place as Donald's most ludicrous notions.
