Faux-Obama Jumps the Shark

Another week, another book. This time, from the infamous Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former attorney and “fixer.” “Disloyal: A Memoir”, penned by Cohen, hits the already flooded marketplace on Tuesday. I have no plans to read Cohen’s book (why put more money into a crook’s pocket?), and would have paid the publication little mind if it were not for a Facebook headline that caught my eye: “Trump paid fake Obama to belittle, fire him on video.” This little gem is apparently revealed in Cohen’s book and is substantiated by video.
My first reaction to this report of “fake Obama” was laughter, disbelief. While I believe Donald Trump spoke irreverently about our troops, I can’t believe what the Facebook post implies, that Trump engaged in a weird, ego-boosting exercise designed to enhance his self-image by allowing him to insult “Obama” face-to-face. The suggestion, quite frankly, jumps the shark.
