Mud Wrestling


What is plentiful in a swamp? Why, mud of course! And this mire is being thrown around in Washington "like it's candy. " It's not wrong to point out that President Trump has had a lot to do with much of this slime-ing  ... justified or not. However, Marco Rubio quickly learned last year that trying to play this same game did not help his cause. His taunts of Trump just made him look petty.

But, not learning this lesson, other daring-dos are jumping into the ring trying to out-insult Trump. Even the Bushes, who carefully had avoided taking on Obama during his term (which would have been justified), are instead going after the current president.

Still many others are slinging mud balls at Trump ... Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell (both the minority and majority leaders of the Senate for heaven's sake), Mika and Joe, a host of CNN hosts, Mark Cuban, the Congressional Black Caucus, Jeff Flake, Kim Jong Un, Robert Corker, Lie-a-watha, etc. But most of Hollywood have pulled in their horns because of their metastasizing sexual scandals (which demonstrate a different set of horns). Still they were big players in this game for a while.

Unfortunately the referee in this mud wrestling match is Special Counsel Robert Mueller ... who has caked and dried mud all over his shoes and up to his "I'm with her" button. A neutral arbiter, he is not.
