Nope, we are at war with people who are trying to kill us.
Nothing at all funny about it. No offense to the OP, you are probably right to try and lighten the mood around here but I say no laughing, this is serious fucking business and the tax plan will kill over 10,000 of us next year alone.

If we mock Trump enough, his blood pressure may rise enough to break all the gauges and he'll explode into a bazillion little fragments, none of which are seed material for the whole.
True, Chaplin's send-up of Herr Hitler didn't prevent the Holocaust, but it was a good try.

For some reason I found the fake Hillary "lip reading" to be the most humorous. What language do they have her speaking? Afrikaans?
I'm a little surprised this "bad lip reading" hasn't found its way to Colbert. But he does a great job skewering El Trumpo on a nightly basis.
Yup, the tax con is a major bummer. But we can laugh as we make all the necessary preparations to take back Congress and dump Trump.
