The Emperor in Exile (10)

Trump is back at Trump Tower with one of his Secret Service agents after the trial.

SS: Wow, bad day, boss!

T: At least I’m free now. I don’t have to sit in that cold courtroom with all those fascists and communists anymore. I’m back in control again. I can go out and campaign again. I can focus on kicking Biden’s ass.

SS: It must be hard, sitting in this place, to think of yourself as a common convicted felon.

T: I’M NOT! I’M A VICTIM OF A RIGGED SYSTEM! THE JUDGE WAS CORRUPT AND THE PROSECUTORS ARE ANIMALS! THE JURORS WERE ALL MANHATTAN LIBERALS! I HAD NO CHANCE!

SS: So what are you going to do about it?

T: I WANT REVENGE! I’LL GET ELECTED, AND THEN I’LL PUT ALL THOSE PEOPLE IN JAIL! BIDEN WILL NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY AGAIN!

SS: What does this have to do with Biden? The Manhattan DA doesn’t work for him.

T: OF COURSE HE DOES! THEY ALL DO! THEY’RE ALL ON THE SAME TEAM, AND THEY’RE MAKING AMERICA A BANANA REPUBLIC! THAT’S WHY I HAVE TO WIN THE ELECTION–TO CLEAN HOUSE AND START OVER AGAIN!

SS: I thought you were supposed to be running to help the American people with stuff like inflation. You make it sound like the campaign is only about your personal grievances.

T: I’m bigger than America. It’s all about me. If I do well, the little people will do OK.

SS: Well, I just hope you don’t go to jail.

T: Why do you care?

SS: Because I’ll have to serve the time with you to protect you. You’re not that popular with those people, you know.

T: Well, just make sure to vote for me in November. That will keep you out of jail for sure.

SS: I’ll keep that in mind.
