Partly Facetious: Consigning Nawaz to an unsavoury chapter of history
"You reckon Nawaz Sharif is history?"
"That's the writing on the wall."
"And which wall is that?"
"Not the one Trump wants to build along the US border with Mexico."
"Wants to build?! He was in California yesterday looking at a prototype of the wall and I bet you he will construct it during his presidency."
"I disagree."
"Hey, you may disagree with whether he will succeed in getting the Mexicans to pay for the wall that they do not want built, but he is totally committed to the wall."
"My disagreement is because his work experience and qualifications are not right for the job."
"His qualifications are that of a builder and he has built many a building and made millions of dollars so I beg to disagree."
"Right, but his training from the television show The Apprentice has been to fire people and chances are that whoever he gives the contract to build the wall will be fired."
"There are more than one construction companies in the US. Besides Trump may use one of the companies that he has used for constructing his buildings and..."
"Ah that is a no, no. Paragon may have been used to construct Aashiana and Ephedrine Abbasi may have been charged with overseeing the building of Rawalpindi-Islamabad metro but I don't think Trump can go that far, at least not now."
"Right, but going back to Nawaz Sharif he has never fired anyone - not even those who dumped him unceremoniously ..."
"Other than the Chaudhrys of Gujrat."
"Right, but his speech at the party's Convention seemed to acknowledge the fact that he was history..."
"Why in the world doesn't he provide the documents for those dratted Avenfield flats? OK so he bought them in 1993 or 1994 but the Economic Reforms Act was passed in 1993 enabling anyone to send out any amount abroad legally, no questions asked."
"No can do, Nawaz Sharif's children were too young at the time and so the onus of proving the source of the money would be raised and then there are his tax returns for those years and then..."
"Life is not easy!"
"Qualify that please! Life is easy in terms of material assets but not in terms of political power."
"Hmmm."
