Another Mobile Home Broken Up

 And everyone said it wouldn't last. 

And everyone was right. 

The money-driven lust for power relationship that spawned the love child DOGE hit the rocks on June 5, 2025, less than a year after it went public. 

Do you remember when it all began? The world's richest man started to tweet about his admiration for the former game show host as the campaign of 2024 began to reach a boiling point. You may remember the crazed gunman who took a shot at the twice-impeached felon on the campaign trail. It was sometime around then that Elongated Mush went public with his rediscovered admiration for the man who, back in 2016, he said "I feel a bit stronger that he is not the right guy. He doesn’t seem to have the sort of character that reflects well on the United States."

We all know how time heals all wounds, and the prospect of acquiring more wealth and power can also make political bedfellows that might otherwise seem to make no sense. These two oddfellows consolidated their grab for power after it became apparent that they both had something to gain: A Second Trumpreich offered Mush a way to revisit his youth in the shape of a new apartheid. The adjudicated rapist who was attempting to become the first convicted felon to be elected President of the United States saw star power in Mushie that outshone Kid Rock, so he accepted Mush's check for nearly three hundred million dollars and went back to praising "the late great Hannibal Lecter." 

After the Dear Orange Leader was elected in November, Elongated Mush could not contain himself. He let fly with not one but two sieg-heils from the podium at a rally celebrating the victory. He told rally goers, "It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured." 

With that kind of endorsement, and a great big checkbook, who wouldn't invite a guy like that home? 

But it all went south once things got real in the wake of popular opinion. As it turned out, no one really wanted to see what these two had in store for the future of our civilization. Not even those nifty electric cars that the Mar-A-Lago's golf champ wanted to sell from the lawn of the White House, or the tariffs that fluxuated in size and importance with each passing day. 

Things got more and more tempestuous even as Elongated Mush was handed the made-up tribute of a golden key upon his retreat from Washington. It was only a few days after that tender moment that Mushie went full public with his feelings about the "Big Beautiful Bill," which he felt would add to the deficit that his DOGE-y crew had worked so hard and comically to deflate. 

Which didn't seem to slow the White House insistence that nothing could be farther from the truth. So Mister Mush decided to go low by tweeting the not-so-veiled accusation of Dear Leader's connection to the Epstein files: “That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a good day, DJT!”

In a battle between egos that can only be housed in Olympic-sized stadiums, this will most likely take a monstrous effort to control the casualties. But, since they're both monsters in their own right, I can only expect the appearance of Godzilla himself will calm the devastation that lies at the end of each news cycle. 

Then again, when the revelations turn out to be simply that which confirms the aberrant behavior of either one of these nimrods, I declare Situation Normal...
