The Trouble with Trevor
Remember that crazy story Former President Donald Trump loved to tell about the frost-bitten snake taken in by a tender-hearted woman who was then shocked when the snake bit her? The punchline: you knew I was a snake before you took me in.
His point, I guess, was to warn about the alleged dangers of unchecked immigration. But many people took it as a cautionary tale about why Trump never should have been elected President of the United States in the first place: we knew he was a con man, a liar and a cheat and we still let him sneak into the White House via the back door – aka the electoral college — after he lost the popular vote by 3 million.
