  • Trump Doesn’t Care If You Die Standing in Line to Vote as Long as You’re Voting for Him

    President Trump is not a smart man. He is a man of simple things. He demands loyalty. He demands that people see him how he sees himself. He demands that people lie for him. He demands that he win at all costs. So when Trump demands that “Republicans should fight very hard when it comes…

    President Joe Exotic has found another Carole Baskin to blame for his inept and lackluster response to the Tiger King of viruses.

  • Trump Campaign to Jeff Sessions: Stop Trying to Act Like We’re Still Gang Gang

    President Trump and Jeff Sessions were once a White House version of famed New England Patriots duo Bill Belichick and Tom Brady—that is, until Sessions started realizing that what Trump wanted in an attorney general was a body man to do his dirty work. When Session said “nah,” he then resigned at Trump’s request, which is…

  • Jared Kushner Is a Goddamn Idiot

    On Thursday—and I didn’t think this was possible—President Trump handed the mic to someone who is actually dumber and less qualified than the president, his son-in-law, Jared Kushner. To date, Jared Kushner is basically following in Trump’s footsteps; his father made money in real estate and the young Kushner is eating off the fat of…

  • Auntie Maxine Is Not Here for the President or His Coronavirus Congratulations

    It’s become in vogue to bash the president. Don’t get it twisted; he’s deserving of all the hate coming his way, but it’s not really bold to say that the president is an idiot or a Russian operative or that he’s got a thing for Russian prostitute urine, now. It was a bit more taboo,…
