The changing of Trump's Cabinet is the signs of the times. President Clinton was accused of it, but with this administration, it's real.

Most of you have heard the term "Wag the dog." To 'wag the dog' means to purposely divert attention from what would otherwise be of greater importance, to something else of lesser significance. By doing so, the lesser-significant event is catapulted into the limelight, drowning proper attention to what was originally the more important issue.

The expression comes from the saying that 'a dog is smarter than its tail', but if the tail were smarter, then the tail would 'wag the dog'. The expression 'wag the dog' was elaborately used as the theme of the movie. 'Wag the Dog', a 1997 film starring Robert de Niro and Dustin Hoffman, produced and directed by Barry Levinson.

In the 1997 film Wag the Dog, a fictional and unnamed US president is engulfed in an underage sex scandal, forcing his top aide to enlist the help of a spin doctor to divert attention, by fabricating a war in Albania.

We're experiencing early signs of the wag with the "Friday Firings"-- changing of the cabinet. Mr. Trump is emboldened with his erratic behavior in ruining America. CM
