Let’s start by establishing a few, hard facts. Donald Trump is just a tenant of the White House. This iconic home is also the undivided property of all tax-paying, citizens of the United States of America. So, if you are an American, you and I are Trump’s landlords.
When a property owner rents a house or an apartment, after checking the renter’s references, it’s customary to ask for a security deposit. In that case, we failed to, because our tenant said he was worth $10 billion. Reality would prove later that he might have been one-fifth that rich, if at all.So we’re now stuck with a misbehaving, broke, bad tenant whose lease is about to expire and I’m worried about that. As a landlord, I’m right to fear that he won’t leave, not the just the physical property, but also the moral property of America in much worse shape than what it was when he found it.
Sure there are the lawyers, the Sheriff too, that can throw the bum out. I also realize now, “Where in hell is our security deposit?” Since we didn’t for one, we have no financial recourse.
Perhaps the only solution would be to ask the 74 million smart Americans who wanted Trump’s lease renewed to pay for all the damages he created, present and future, which by my estimation amount to about $5 trillion; thus to contribute a hefty $68 million by elector.
Good luck on that one...
