The Trumps Are Not Royalty

by Pa Rock

A couple of national news journalists have suggested over the past few days that the Trump family represents American royalty.  The family has a king, Donald, a fat and despotic lout whose only interest seems to be in giving himself pleasure and tearing down those around him, a queen (and a couple of ex-queens) who all know to follow the king at a distance and keep quiet, and a bevy of imbecilic children.

The children are unremarkable as royals go, preferring to "work" as part of the royal family rather than to go out and try to secure actual jobs based on merit.  Two of the kids, Prince Junior and Princess Ivanka believe that they have the right stuff to  eventually be the monarch themselves - after all, a country that was dumb enough to elect their father as king would no doubt also give the keys to the castle to his heirs.  Prince Junior has even talked about taking a job outside of the family to kill some time until the king is ready to do nothing but golf - which is basically all that he does now.  Prince Junior thinks that being Mayor of New York City might be the right gig for him until Daddy leaves the throne.

Prince Junior, following in Daddy's footsteps, recently divorced the mother of his five children and has taken up with a pretty young reporter who used to be a reader on Fox News, Daddy's personal propaganda outlet.

Prince Junior wears his plans on his sleeve, like a cheap tattoo, but Princess Ivanka is a bit more cunning.  She appears to many to be the real power behind the throne, the one who constantly has Daddy's ear as she engineers palace intrigues - sometimes with able assists from her conniving husband, Jared, the Duke of New York.  Prince Junior would probably be well advised not to eat any apples out of the White House fruit bowl while Ivanka is in residence there.

Prince Junior is closely allied with his younger brother, Prince Eric, and together the pair are often known as Uday and Qusay (after a couple of late Iraqi brothers who harbored pretensions of being princes) - and Beavis and Butthead.  Both sets of appellations are derogatory in nature, but the insults probably go right over the heads of Prince Junior and Prince Eric.

Princess Ivanka, Prince Junior, and Prince Eric, the oldest of King Donald's five children, were all brought into this world by Queen Ivana who has since been banished to a convent on Fifth Avenue.  Queen Ivana was replaced in the King's heart and bed chamber by Queen Marla whom he married shortly after their only child, Princess Tiffany, was born.  Queen Marla was soon pensioned off to her own nunnery, and Princess Tiffany grew up as sort of the king's forgotten child, a circumstance which resulted in her becoming perhaps the most human of the five.

The third and current Queen is Melania, a recent immigrant from Central Europe who worked as a soft-porn model before she caught the eye of the king.  Queen Melania is the mother of Prince Barron, the king's fifth child, a young adolescent who is usually kept from public view.

Last week America's so-called royals met the real-deal British royals, and basically all that it proved was that the British are more civilized than their American cousins.    But beneath all of the pomp and circumstance the Brits can let down their hair and enjoy a traveling circus - particularly if it has a freak show!

Here's betting that Buckingham Palace threw the dishes away after the Trumps left!
