I never saw him smile until Rump was in the White House. Now he virtually glows. I guess it’s true what they say about power. Must be a huge power trip to be able to bring down a nation. They once said he cared a great deal about his legacy. I think he’s relieved not to have to care about it anymore. The euphoria of unchallenged power is stronger than any man made drug. Future words in history books can’t compete with this high.

Just be careful Smilin’ Johnny; there are even hungrier rats under that big sugar tree.
