All of America is like a bus with Trump at the wheel... And this bus is going over a cliff.

Of course, the most natural reaction is panic that this insane busdriver is taking us all over this cliff.

However, scattered amongst the panicky passengers are fans of the bus driver, so they say. They're delighted and entertained by everyone else's reactions in this bus, as we all go over this cliff.

They say that going over the cliff is just fine, because Trump is at the wheel.

Trump is telling us that going over the cliff will be fine as well.

He tells us that he's the best bus driver there is.

Now his fans said that the other choice of a bus driver, one who had no intention of driving us all over a cliff, was unacceptable. That she was the bad bus driver, in spite of the fact that she also warned us that Trump would take us all over a cliff, were he to be given the wheel.

As a matter of fact, they were the ones who hired Trump to be the bus driver, even though they were warned if he took the wheel that he would drive this bus over a cliff. Needless to say, they did so out of spite, because they don't like us and will do anything to make us feel pain.

Even if that meant that they'd end up in a bus with us that's going over a cliff. They see the cliff and the bus going over it, and they're encouraging the bus driver to drive faster... Over the cliff.

(Hey, we can make it to the other side. That'll show 'em.)

So here we are, going over a cliff with an insane bus driver at the wheel, a man who had s pretty shitty driving record to begin with, instead of someone who had a clean driving record and who would not be driving over a cliff.

So, before we all go over that cliff, what do you think we oughta do?

on the back of the bus. Next time he slows down, I'll open the back door. We can roll out the back, and leave the lemmings w the bus driver. We will suffer some broken bones and bumps and bruises, but I swore an oath as a "Safety Patrol". They don't give these bright orange belts to anyone ya know. Be ready to roll.
