A meticulously-maintained machine is the new target of US President Donald Trump and his mission to make everything better. According to the White House, President Trump will fix the model of reliability so that it’s the most reliable machine ever seen, whereas President Barack HUSSEIN Obama only made the machine operate like clockwork. Under the same policy, clocks that work like clockwork will also be mended.
There is reportedly no need to invite any qualified organisations to bid for the work as President Trump is very familiar with plenty of cowboy outfits through his love of Westerns. And the price will be the best price, to be negotiated personally by Trump with no regard to personal gain whatsoever.
When the job is complete, a huge celebration is planned to recognise the achievements. The well-oiled machine which previously operated without a hitch will now be claimed to work even better with a hitch installed. The credit for this will be given to the President who will rightly claim he should be given a prize.
However, should the machine appear to become less reliable, any suggestion that the hitch was unnecessarily introduced will be rigorously denied. Should those rumours persist, the suggestion that the work was sabotaged will be initially floated, then forcefully stated and finally reinforced through threats.
And those who attempt to draw parallels between the well-oiled machine and the American economy or International Relations or the Strait of Hormuz or the Reflecting Pool will be similarly threatened.
