Armageddon Lite

Either most people were not paying attention to politics over the weekend, or else not much was going on besides the Masters golf tournament.  A few new scandals about the grifters in the tRump administration; this time Mick Mulvaney using the public trough to hire a few former aides at salaries higher than any member of congress, a fire at the tRump Tower in New York which killed a resident partly because no fire sprinklers were ever installed and the usual speculation about the coming end times sparked by the accession of John Bolton to the position of National Security Advisor.  In other words, it was a slow news weekend.  That's about all we can hope for in this era of American decline.
