This Just In: Trump Barricades Self inside West Wing

After having heavy furniture moved against the doors and taping aluminum foil over all windows, Donald Trump has apparently barricaded himself and a few loyal staff members inside the White House. Uncertainty is the order of the day, following this unprecedented move. Attempts to contact Trump via his cell phone have proven to be unsuccessful, so all anyone can do is wait for tweets from the President. We will have team coverage from the White House grounds during the 5.

I suppose this is necessary - {satire}

He's turned off all the electricity and covered the windows with Mylar.

The only thing he can push is fries around his plate.

when Trump barricades himself inside the White House. I believe it is already happening, figuratively.

Now that Trump has insulted NATO, and is talking about leaving the climate accord, will the NAT0 troops (around 5000) be leaving Afghanistan?
At the moment he is talking about sending 5000 more troops more there, if NAT pulls out he will need 10,000.

My wish - his two useless sons will be some of them.
