President James Archer held his umbrella with his left hand while using his right to scroll through social media messages on his smartphone. October rain plopped on the deep blue plastic, barely audible over the engines of the Marine One helicopter fleet idling on the White House lawn. The grass slapped his black leather shoes with rainwater. He walked with a straight back, smartphone held at eye level. Have to look presidential, strong posture, for the cameraman ten feet to his right. Beads of water on the lens would give the video a somber reality. It would look good in the history videos, President Archer, resolute during an international crisis. Next message. @POTUS why dont you just wetwork Abdullah? Solve #KurdistanVsMesopotamianRepublicCrisis with 1 bullet? President Archer pressed the home button. “Tuxi,” he said to the software assistant, his voice deep and rich for the parabolic mic pointed at him by the soundman, “compose a reply. ‘@USAFan_65706, it’s illegal for me to target a foreign leader unless we declare war. Mesopotamia will comply with treaty obligations without need for war.’ Post it.” The steel blue hulk topped with white of his Marine One loomed ahead. President Archer slipped his phone into an outer pocket of his overcoat. At the foot of the stairs, a Marine in dress uniform, tanned face impassive in the rain, snapped a salute. President Archer returned the salute, then trotted up the stairs. He handed over his umbrella to the purser, said “Yes, black” to her query about coffee, and took a seat on padded beige leather at the rear of the cabin. The moment of privacy ended when the cameraman and soundman stomped into the cabin, dripping rainwater on the entry mat. The black circle of the lens and the white plastic mic dish swung instantly into position. Back in the damn fish bowl, but he kept the thought away from his face. At Camp David, he would have more than enough privacy.
