Why is this filed under 'theonion'? Does anyone actually think he wouldn't start a nuclear war to avoid embarasment, let alone what would happen to him if anything damning came out in those files? I sippose the only unbelivable bit is that he is planning anything, rather than being told what to think.

It's satire, which always has some element of truth to it in order to be effective comedy.
