THE NINTH INNING

 

By Howie Katz

 

It's the bottom of the ninth. The Democrats are leading by one run over the Republicans, but the Republicans have loaded the bases.  Heavy hitter Donald Trump is at bat.  The count is 3 balls, 2 strikes.  Joe Biden, the Democratic pitcher, throws a screwball.  Trump swings and misses.   

Trump argues with the umpire that Biden threw an illegal pitch.  Republican team manager Rudy Giuliani joins in the argument while the fans are eagerly awaiting the decision.  

 

Several team members joined in and each one told the umpire that Biden's pitch was illegal because the Chinese had hacked into the ball to prevent Trump from getting the game winning hit. 

 

After some time that seemed like an eternity to the fans, an irritated umpire dismissed their arguments and ordered them off the field. 

 

Suddenly Sidney Powell jumps onto the field screaming that the umpire has been bribed by the Chinese communists and threatening to unleash the Kraken before two guys wearing white coats snag the crazy woman with a butterfly net and drag her off. 

 

Trump and Giuliani are appealing the outcome of the game to Commissioner John Roberts, but all the sports experts predict he will refuse to hear their arguments, or if he does, he will rule against them. .  

 

Diehard Trump fans, get this through your skulls: The ballgame is over!
