MIKE
News Item: The CIA Director and the National Security Adviser appointees
announced this week are both called "Mike" as is the Vice President.
Give me a mic and I'll change the world.
Yes sir Mr. Trump, you already did.
Is that why you like the name 'Mike'.
Never thought of it. But now that you bring it up ... hmm, I wonder ...
The psychologists say it's the subconscious, the subliminal that commands the
conscious.
Don't talk like that! You'll be sending me, the Great Donald, to a psychiatrist next.
Well ... they keep our feet on the ground ... anchored, so to speak.
What crap! It's a beautiful world out there, and I ... I am going to make it more
beautiful.
Yes sir!
Isn't it amazing? Who would've thought? Am I not amazing? I hope my father is
looking down on me.
He probably is, sir. He always did.
Well, I have this tremendous urge to succeed.
You will be able to sort out the 'Mikes'
Of course, what do you take me for? Pence sounds a little cheap though. I wish he
was Pound Sterling or something like that, or even Gold or Silver. Nah!
No, he wouldn't like Gold or Silver, sir, for sure.
Yeah, you're right. It's a beautiful world. It's going to be incredible. Incredible ...
maybe I can get someone called Twitter ...
