Jaws movie poster from 1975
Wearing a black bow tie, black tux, and sipping white wine, President Barack Obama revealed himself to be a big bad shark serving clownfish Donald Trump on his menu while showing his razor sharp teeth and grinning ear to ear at a White House Correspondence dinner this weekend.
The message was clear. Obama understands the nature of American politics.
He sent a piercing message to all Republican heavyweight contenders willing to step into the 2012 presidential ring.
Get ready for a bloodbath.
We don’t normally see this side of President Obama. It is a dark side of his personality that Trump and the Birthers seem to have released out of Pandora’s Box.
We learned Saturday night that Obama is a different breed of human and has indelible psychological superpowers over our nation.
Obama attempted to paint himself as the lovable character from The Lion King but he looked more like an Old Spice version of X-Men's Charles Xavier with the power to bend minds then the nice idealistic man we elected to power almost two and a half years ago.
At the dinner party, Obama stuck his dorsal fin out of the water and picked on a defenseless clownfish named Trump. He even employed Saturday Night Live Star Seth Myers to aid him in the bashing.
I’m not saying Trump didn’t deserve it-he did support the ridiculously racist Birther movement and even questioned the American heritage of our president-but the whole scene was still pretty twisted.
This is what a nightmare looks like if you are Donald Trump. It’s that dream where you are sitting in a room completely naked and everybody is laughing and pointing their fingers at you.
Obama tapped into Trump's psyche and with the skill and grace of a Samurai sushi master, he quickly sliced off Trump's skin and served him rolled up in seaweed and rice for our nation's amusement.
These actions seemed more like something Freddie Krueger would do and not Obama.
Yet the political climate has changed since two years ago and Obama is revealing what he can do to those who oppose his will.
It will be hard for Trump to recover from this nationally televised browbeating.
It will not be a primrose path free from thorns for the other Republican contenders who step into the ring and throw punches at Obama. We learned, at least in jest, that Obama possesses a powerful uppercut with the strength to knockout his opponents.
In all fairness, Trump was not given a microphone and did not have the ability to defend himself.
Trump’s talents lie in the fact that he is very good at drowning out the words of others. He likes to speak and is good at it. At this White House dinner party he was forced to listen and learn how the game of politics is played.
At the very least, if Trump chooses not to run for the presidency, he will be saving himself millions of dollars. For that, he can thank Obama.
Yet imagine that for a moment you are Trump. Your whole life you have gotten what you wanted: wealth, women, and fame. You were born with a silver spoon in your hand and will be placed in a golden coffin when you die. When you go to Las Vegas you get to stay in the best suites and party with Playboy's loosest women.
In politics, Trump painfully learned that he is merely a shiny baby guppy armed with a great big silver rattle etched with the words Celebrity Apprentice.
There is little doubt that this move was political scripted by the sages of the Obama Administration.
I think we all learned how adept an intelligent incumbent could be at defending his turf regardless of the economic troubles plaguing the country.
Let this be a lesson to all ye presidential hopefuls. This is how politics is done.
