They never knew what they were doing. And it showed. Doesn’t mean it wasn’t interesting, though.

And I had no idea about #12. I’m grateful for it, though. His gravitas saved the show from completely degenerating into self-mockery, despite its many attempts to do so.

Trump Truths: Check

For the pure sadistic fun of watching liberal heads explode, instead of a spell checker, President Trump runs his tweets through software that randomly inserts errors.

Spoke Too Fast (Song Parody)

[High Praise! to Oppo]

Spoke Too Fast (to the tune of “Heart of Glass” by Blondie)

Almost had Trump and he was aghast
Soon turned out we spoke too fast
Seemed a done-deal thing, only to find
Mucho disgust, wasted all our crime.

That Russian stuff, it was divine
Soon found out we had lost our mind
Seemed like the real thing, we were so blind
Mueller messed up, nothing to find.

In the media
What we found was pleasing, like we needed Time
Trump is so confusing
There’s no peace of mind
Now we feel like users used
It’s just no good, you reasoning like you do

Oooh-ooh-ooh–ooh-ah…

Once had him bugged, and it was a gas
Soon turned out — nothing to amass
It seemed like a good plan, only to find
Mueller mistrust, polls falling behind.

Lost insiders
Adorable illusions
But they could not find
Deplorable collusion,
Please don’t put us inside
We worked with GPS Fusion, yeah

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la —
I can’t hear you —
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-…

Yeah, riding high on our true bluish lies

Once acted tough just to harass
Soon turned out, had a jaw of glass
Seemed like a sure thing only to find
Mueller missed Trump, covered his behind

In defeat
What we tried was treason, and we’re facing time
Truth is so confusing, there’s no pleas in mind
Now we fear we’re losing YouTube, just no good
You reasoning like you do…

Proud Member of the Angry Mob

Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido called on supporters to take to the streets for what he called “the largest march in the history of Venezuela” to try to oust President Nicolas Maduro.

Maduro says he’s not worried since, thanks to socialism, there are severe shortages of torches and pitchforks.
