Midnight Meme Of The Day

by Noah

For those who don't know, Cigarette Smoking Man, or "Smoking Man" as he is always referred to, is the evil Svengali or arch-villain of the long running X-Files TV show. He knows where all of the smoking guns lie, or "smocking guns" as a moronic freak we call Señor Trumpanzee would say. In the longest running plot thread of the show, it is FBI Special Agents Mulder and Scully who take time off from saving us from freaks to save us from "Smoking Man" and his accomplices. It is the "Smoking Man" who has lined himself up with the bad guys from outer space who plan to dominate Earth for their own purposes. There are parallels with real life.

As a devoted X-Files fan, I can attest that, in no episode of the long running series, has there been a freak or space alien as bizarre as those we see in the Trump White House. Freakazoid #1 of course is the Trumpanzee, His bizarre tweets, including the recent one to which tonight's memes refer, filled with misspellings, lies, insane bleatings, and garbled syntax barely scratch the surface. But think of the others in the cast of characters: The shape-shifting First Lady, Spicy, toy soldier wannabe Kellyanne, the Mooch, Vice President Pence who looks like he got embalmed years ago and doesn't know it, and last, but in no way least, Sarah Huckabee Sanders. How do you choose a Freakazoid #2 among that bunch? And, I left one out, Stephen Miller. I mean just look at that guy! It's like Pee Wee Herman grew up to be truly evil, and not just a perv who haunts XXX movie theaters. Although, would it surprise anyone if Miller spends his free time watching Nazi-themed porn such as "Deported Women Of The SS:Special Section" or any of the infamous Ilsa series?

And, think of the White House staffers we've never seen. You know the parade of monsters has no end. You know that anyone working in the Trump White House is a monster at worst or just damn creepy at best. In fact, I have to wonder why The X-Files never did an episode based on the Trump administration last season. I can only surmise that the writers just had nothing they could add. It is what it is and all we know is what we see on our TVs and what we hear about what happens when the White House freaks go out at night.

And to carry on the theme o' the meme: A special bonus Midnight Meme!

"Can you imagine President Trump. The worst nightmare. But we can't say that. Because it could happen. This is one of the wonders of this country. Who would've thought that Ronald Reagan could be President."
