Trump banned from US

This is the wildest scenario, all in jest of course (sort of). Donald Trump swings through Saudi Arabia, Israel, Italy, the Vatican and Brussels for nine days with most of his cabinet with him. Back home in DC, there's plotting and planning, and I don't mean the FBI who are now setting their next sights on a key member of Trump's inner circle (Jared Kushner, Steve Bannon, perhaps?), but Republican hierarchy godfathers. Could they be thinking, what the hell are we going to do with this fella, we can't go on like this, it's going to end in doom, impeachment, the works. It's going to be a total disaster for the country, for us, the Republican party, another Nixon on our record. What can we do? There's a decent president in the wings, dear old Mike Pence, who would do a pretty good and totally uncontroversial job in the White House. So, PLEASE, someone think of a ruse whereby we can get rid of Trump and anoint Pence. And then it hits them? What do leaders in the Third World with desperate scandals at home always fear doing while rebellion is building against them. They don't go abroad on a trip in case there's a coup while they're away. "Sooooo, why don't we do that?" "What do you mean," everyone in the plotting frame of mind asks? "Well," says chief plotter (unidentified), "Trump is away for nine days, Pence is here at home, why don't we ban Trump from coming back in?" "WHAT," they all shout!! "No, really, we could cite the fact that he's been to a Muslim country and therefore under section 94, clause 33 of the blaa blaa act, he has lost the right to return to the US." "But he's the president for heaven's sake, we can't do that!!!" "But," says chief plotter, "these are desperate times. Trump is away, let's keep it that way!!" Everyone looks bemused, worried, startled, amazed, delighted, hugely happy and there follows a mass of high-fives. "Brilliant idea," they all chorus. "But what about the rest of them, his delegation, we can't ban McMaster, we need him, not sure about Tillerson, and what about Jared?" "Yeah," all agree, "ban Jared, definitely. He can go live with his father-in-law in.....well wherever he's going to live. Any suggestions?" Someone whispers "dacha" but everyone else behaves as if they haven't heard. So it's decided, Trump will not be allowed to return to the USA. It's a done deal. Everyone leaves the room to let the New York Times know what is planned.

  1. What a great idea, I wish this could be implemented. Will there be another favourable opportunity? Never mind, let him pile up more blunders and get the kickout.
