Now, for something completely different. . . .

A very Trumpy Hawaii visit

White House protocol experts working overtime to prep POTUS ahead of his upcoming Asia trip can catch their breath this weekend. He’s stopping over in Hawaii, where attitudes are decidedly more “lei’d” back. And in keeping with the high value Hawaiians place on family, or “ohana,” the Press Office has revealed a tentative schedule that includes — surprise! — the whole family is Hawaii bound (with apologies to “Brady Bunch” fans). No word yet on whether it’s a one-way trip for a certain out-of-favor son-in-law.

White House Hawaii Visit Schedule

7:00 a.m. POTUS and family arrive at Trump Waikiki Hotel, where Donald Trump Jr. will strum the ukulele to drown out protesters in the streets. As the family passes the home of US District Judge Derrick Watson, POTUS will tweet derisively about its shoddy construction.

8:00 a.m. While waiting for his gilded hard hat to arrive at a building site, Don Jr. will find a ceremonial tiki idol. Ignoring local warnings that it is “taboo” to keep it, and that bad luck follows anyone who touches the idol, he will take it, anyway, because, a) it’s free and b) everybody knows that the rules don’t apply to Trumps.
