No More Mr. Nice Guy

I just received Time in the morning mail, and the cover reminds me of an old joke.
The good news is that Jesus is coming back.

The bad news is that he's p****d off.
Donald Trump, as even his followers would agree, is not a paragon of virtue even by human standards, but he does wield enormous power as a President whose own party controls both houses of Congress.

(Mr. Trump's power, however, pales before President Obama's, whose Democratic Party held 257 seats in the House and 58 seats--later rising to 60--in the Senate in 2009.)

As to whether he is truthfully angry, all that matters is that his friends and enemies believe he is, and he makes it work for him.
