Never Let Me Go

I'll deem it sufficiently "sci-fi."

Shattering book. Shattering movie. Got nowhere near the viewership it deserved. Maybe this post will get it a handful more.

What's Putin's Oval Office brown-noser to do?... the Boss's new babies don't officially exist!

Shades of Game of Thrones, there are new russkie royal bastards!

Like other dictators and monarchs throughout history, Czar Vlad I of Russia bangs beautiful consorts when he pleases and makes off-the-books progeny with them as he sees fit.

But, what is Trump supposed to do about this today? Does he phone his congratulations to his Boss, on the new babies that in Russia don't officially exist? One Russian site reported the news but immediately had it yanked by Kremlin censors. What's expected of him in this delicate situation, as Putin's employee, political hostage, and stooge? Donald doesn't do delicate well. But certainly he must at least know he can't follow his normal instincts here, which would be to tweet out his bootlicking praises and best wishes from the crapper? Right?

These are the Czar's 2nd and 3rd children with the sexy super-flexi celebrity gymnast. She's still young!... and still "a 10"!... and looks not unlike Trump's hot young ex-Oval Office personal aide, dear Hopey! (You do remember Hope Hicks, one of the legions of the Departed?)

Our own U.S. Cartoon-Demogogue-In-Chief must be SO jealous.

And here in the U.S. poor Trump has to even pretend that he opposes that important safety valve for his and Putin's sorts of wealthy pigs: abortion.

Unfair!
Sad!

I drool at the prospect of a Mayor Pete v. Reverend Mike nationally televised veep debate.

Indiana's very best and its very worst, on display on the same stage together.

Mike would subject the country to his agonizing, hemming and hawing, platitude-and-evasion-stuffed sermonizing... which is all he ever does besides just sit looking pained like the narrow-minded, disapproving, stuffed-shirt 1950s church elder he is.

Peter Buttigieg, in stark contrast, would address all of the issues directly and answer the questions with refreshing, laser-like clarity.

Pence -- if he grasped what was happening to him, that is -- would be crying for Mother before it was over.

Liz is a hellcat. She takes the fight straight at The Problem.

Increasingly I like the idea of Liz topping the ticket and oh, maybe an equally brilliant, articulate, relentless, slightly more moderate, midwestern Harvard-Oxford grad and Afghan War vet filling the no. 2 spot.

Warren-Buttigieg 2020?
