Reckless and Feckless President

If Trump were a machine, he might be a piledriver. Instead of clanging and banging, it's a quiet tweet storm in the middle of the night from the commander-in-chief bugged by being upstaged by Jeff Sessions.

"They're after me from all sides," he might be thinking, and he would be correct. Postcards are storming The White House" bearing the word, "Resist." The "real majority" of Americans didn't want one day of Trump in office. He is there, polluting the nation's reputation and stirring a brew for fights, foreign and domestic.

House Minority Leader, Pelosi calls him the "deflector-in-chief." His blaming is as constant as his lying. Lying by a federal government official is an impeachable crime, by only if the liars in charge of Congress say it's so.

The "leaker-in-chief" let the cat out of the bag. He revealed secret government information thereby making it declassified by the rule of sloppy tweeting.

"If you're gonna try and walk on water
Make sure you wear your comfortable shoes."

"If – through his tweets – Trump revealed secret government information about surveillance, he exercised an exclusive privilege afforded only to the president as the ultimate declassification authority. 
If any other government employee had single-handedly made such revelations they could see prison time for potentially damaging U.S. national security, a former official with intimate knowledge of the government secrecy policies told ABC News.
“It's an extremely serious offense,” ABC News Contributor Matt Olsen, who is the former director of the National Counterterrorism Center and a former FBI counsel, explained. 
“Anyone who would reveal the existence of a wiretap would violate federal law,” he said. “It is against federal law to disclose the existence of a wiretap, whether that wiretap is for criminal purposes or intelligence purposes.” 
Wiretaps regarding foreign espionage and terrorism fall under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 (FISA), issued by a secret court which meets in a secure courtroom shielded from public view or eavesdropping. Trump campaign aides have fallen under FBI scrutiny because of their repeated contacts with people alleged to be tied to Russian intelligence agencies, which the Trump associates may not even have been aware of."

"ARCTIC MONKEYS LYRICS
"Piledriver Waltz" 
I etched a face of a stopwatch
On the back of a raindrop
And did a swap for the sand in an hourglass
I heard an unhappy ending
It sort of sounds like you leaving
I heard the piledriver waltz
It woke me up this morning
You look like you've been for breakfast
At the heartbreak hotel
And sat in the back booth
By the pamphlets and the literature
On how to lose
Your waitress was miserable
And so was your food
If you're gonna try and walk on water
Make sure you wear your comfortable shoes
Mystery's flashing amber
Go green when you answer
But the red on the rest of the questionnaire
Never changes
I heard the news that you're planning
To shoot me out of a cannon
I heard the piledriver waltz
It woke me up this morning
You look like you've been for breakfast
At the heartbreak hotel
And sat in the back booth
By the pamphlets and the literature
On how to lose
Your waitress was miserable
And so was your food
If you're gonna try and walk on water
Make sure you wear your comfortable shoes
Ohh, piledriver"
