Trump’s Ten Commandments
By Laurie Baron
SAN DIEGO− I am the President who liberated you from Obama and brought you out of the house of losing.
*
You shall neither worship the President before me nor like the new host of the “Apprentice.”
*
You shall not take my name in vain because I am the least vain person in the world.
*
Observe the Sabbath because I’m golfing at Mara Lago at the taxpayer’s expenses.
*
Honor your father because he might loan and will you a fortune.
*
You can murder. We’ve got a lot of killers. What, do you think our country’s so innocent?
*
You shall not commit adultery unless she’s younger and more beautiful than your present wife.
*
You shall steal if it involves oil reserves. You shall not pay back your debts.
*
Bear false witness against your predecessor and any other political enemy because if you heard it on Breitbart or Fox and not on the fake news, it isn’t false.
*
You shall not covet Obamacare because it will be repealed and replaced by something great.
