Drunk Donald Trump

From Jimmy Kimmel. Brilliant. Here are just a few of them, but there are many others on YouTube.

The Locker Room Alibi

Late Night Political Humor

[Jokes from Sept. 28, 2016] “There are now about six more weeks left in the election. And we know that because this morning, Trump’s hair popped out and saw its shadow.” – Jimmy Fallon “According to Forbes magazine, Donald Trump’s wealth is down $800 million from last year. He’s only worth $3.7 billion now, and […]

Pity, Trump

I don’t often agree with David Brooks, but I think he hit the nail on the head in his opinion piece “Donald Trump’s Sad, Lonely Life“. Here’s an excerpt: Politics is an effort to make human connection, but Trump seems incapable of that. He is essentially adviser-less, friendless. His campaign team is made up of […]

The Immigrants Have Won!

What have they won? Nobel Prizes! The Nobel Prizes were recently announced and there are six winners from the US. Every one of them is an immigrant. Many of them are now US citizens, but some are not. All of them live permanently in the US, work and do their research in the US, and […]

Groping for Irony

Donald Trump takes irony and hypocrisy to a new level: Trump’s message for most of this week was that women alleging sexual assault — regardless of how many years had passed, whether they filed charges, whether their claims were held up by the courts — deserve to be heard, rather than discredited or attacked. Trump […]

Hitting Bottom?

© Tom Toles As someone famously said, “At long last, have you left no sense of decency?” Although I think I know the answer. And I suspect that Trump has several more bottoms to crash through.

Late Night Political Humor

[Jokes from Sept. 26, 2016] “Pundits are noting that this year’s group of debate moderators is the most diverse in history, featuring an African-American, two women, a Filipino, and an openly gay man. Trump was like, “I think I’ve heard this one before, but go ahead.’” – Seth Meyers “Hillary Clinton has asked “Shark Tank’s” […]

Disinformation!

I just want to pass on a Newsweek article that might not get the attention it deserves. Wednesday at one of his rallies, Trump directly passed on an email from a Russian disinformation campaign designed to manipulate the US election. It is an email that is supposedly from Clinton confidante Sidney Blumenthal (Trump’s favorite whipping […]

Make America Hated Again

The Brits need our help to make them look good again. You can do your part by not registering to vote, or just not voting. That way, America can regain its status as idiots. “C’mon America, be the bigger moron!” Indeed, Brexit passed because many Brits voted for it as a protest vote, assuming that […]

Trump’s Biggest Coalition

An interesting post in Electoral Vote points out that Donald Trump has built an unprecedented coalition — of people who can’t stand the thought of him becoming president. There’s Paul Ryan, of course, and John McCain, and a host of other high-ranking Republicans in Congress. Barack Obama has been anti-Trump from the outset, and is […]

Bizarro World

© Tom Tomorrow Is it sad to realize that if Hillary Clinton had done even one-tenth of the bizarre things that Donald Trump has done, she would have been laughed out of the presidential race long ago. The same thing is true of the other two candidates. Heck, Gary Johnson was derided because he misunderstood […]

Late Night Political Humor

[Jokes from Sept. 21, 2016] “It was announced that you’ll be able to watch next week’s debate on Twitter. So, finally a way to see Trump say something really crazy on Twitter.” – Jimmy Fallon “Donald Trump falsely claimed that NBC News anchor Lester Holt is a Democrat, when he’s actually a registered Republican. In […]

Late Night on Pussygate

Here’s a quick sampling of all the late shows: Easily the best of the bunch was Trevor Noah of the Daily Show, who totally takes Trump to task: Extra bonus footage from the same show, about how Trump is frighteningly channeling his inner dictator: And as the only female on late night, Samantha Bee throws […]

Zip It

© Clay Bennett After the “Fury in Missouri” debate it is clear that Trump cannot control his own mouth. Threatening to throw Clinton in jail may play well with his angry supporters, but it makes him look more like a tin-pot dictator than an actual presidential candidate. And it has legal experts, including Republican prosecutors […]
