Trump's Irrelevancy Grows As World Moves On

As one after another defeat in courts accumulate across the land, and as the 2020 vote is certified by one state after another, sociopathic demagogue and impeached one-termer Donald "Mango Mussolini" Trump has nearly run out of options in his Cuckoo Coup to overturn the election and seize power like a banana republic dictator. President-elect Joe Biden won, decisively, and his margin of victory ensures that recounts and legal maneuverings by the clownish likes of deranged, sweaty Rudy "Hands In Pants" Giuliani will fail spectacularly.

World leaders and corporate leaders have observed Trump's desperate, pathetic flailing and are walking briskly away from the clown show, as the New York Times reports:

"The leaders of Western Europe have called Mr. Biden, as has the president of the world’s rising superpower, Xi Jinping of China. PayPal’s chief executive extended his “warmest congratulations to President-Elect Joe Biden, who will become the 46th president of the U.S.A.” The Boeing Corporation, which benefited from Mr. Trump’s demands for big-ticket defense items, issued a statement on Friday saying, “We look forward to working with the Biden administration.”

It is as if the vast machinery of diplomacy, business and lobbying has suddenly been recalibrated for the Biden era. Mr. Trump, by far the dominant world figure for the past four years, is increasingly treated as irrelevant.

Bank trade groups have begun meeting with Biden aides in anticipation of new fights over regulation. Foreign diplomats assuming a sharp turn in American foreign policy are retooling their agendas. Corporate executives, who are usually allergic to political statements, are saying out loud what most of Mr. Trump’s supporters have so far refused to acknowledge."  (our emphasis)

As many have noted, far more foreign leaders have congratulated President-elect Biden on his victory than cowardly Republican Senators, many of whom served in the Senate with Biden but who live in abject fear of a nasty Trump tweet. Biden will assume the Presidency at noon on January 20, as sure as Trump will go down in history as a lying, bitter, un- American failure who struggled to subvert the people's decision at the ballot box to fire him. 

BONUS: It's being reported that the grifter Princess and object of her father's lust has backed away from the delusional legal team representing her father. The wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round....
