A Marine colonel on his way home from the Pentagon came to a dead halt in traffic and thought, Wow, this traffic seems worse than usual. Nothing& #39;s even moving.

He noticed a police officer walking back and forth between the lines of cars, so he rolled down his window and asked, "Officer, what& #39;s the holdup?"

The officer replied, "The President is just so depressed about the thought of moving out of the White House and back to Mar-A-Lago he stopped his motorcade in the middle of the Beltway. Now he& #39;s threatening to douse himself in gasoline and set himself on fire."

The colonel raised his eyebrows as the cop continued,
"He says his family hates him and he doesn& #39;t have the money to pay off those billions in loans. I& #39;m walking around taking up a collection for him."

"Oh really? How much have you collected?"asked the colonel.

"So far?" asked the cop. "About three hundred gallons, but a lot of folks are still siphoning."
