After promising last week to travel to Washington, DC to straighten out the mess in the House and float down from the heavens to bestow his gloriousness of the Republican-created shitshow, indicted felon Donald Trump has now called off his trip to the Capitol, Fox announced like the good propaganda outlet it is.
Trump originally announced the trip last Thursday after Kevin McCarthy was ousted as Speaker by a monster of his own creation, Matt Gaetz. At the time, Trump’s name was being thrown into the ring as a possible short-term substitute, so a trip to DC before the real candidates for the job held their now-not-televised forum might have seemed to Trump to be a processional to his swearing-in. But Trump likely learned in the meantime that the Speaker’s job comes with actual work attached to it, making it less attractive to Trump than a 37-year-old.
