At last, at long last we have an explanation for all the disgusting a**-kissing that Donald Trump has been getting from both his fans and his former enemies.
We knew that there had to be all kind of shenanigans going on behind closed doors, right? I mean, you had to know that when such high-class intellectuals such as Hulk Hogan, Ted Nugent, and Charlie Sheen came out in support of Trump, they had to be hoping for some kind of give back.
But Trump has had even bigger political celebrities sucking up to him lately. Remember this image?
Yep, Chris Christie. Former political foe turned brown-nosing suck-up, gazing with devotion at the guy who (he hopes) can get him closer to the power he craves.
You had to think that Chris was jockeying for a big spot in the (cough) Trump Administration. Maybe Secretary of the Treasury? Ambassador to England? Dare he even dream — Vice President?
The Daily Kos is happy to report that Donald Trump has picked Christie for a spot more suitable to his significantly lacking talents.
He’s decided, really prematurely, to appoint Christie as the “Head of the Transition Team.” As the Daily Kos puts it, he’s decided that Christie is the right guy to “measure the drapes.”
As the Head of the Transition Team, Governor Christie would be tasked with helping the government move smoothly from one administration to another. His job would in part be to keep things congenial and friendly between the two groups.
Given Christie’s reputation as a loudmouthed bully, he seems like an odd choice for keeping the bureaucrats happy. On the other hand, compared to Trump himself, Christie is pretty much a giant pussycat.
At any rate, it looks like the payback has begun. Donald Trump referred to Christie as:
“…an extremely knowledgeable and loyal person.”
There’s no doubt that in Donald’s world, loyalty is the most important quality. So it’s “Christie the Drape Hanger.”
Can “Vice-President Ted Nugent” be far behind?
