    If he actually said that, it would be literally incredible. I can’t believe adults take him seriously. Even teens can see that he’s a buffoon. A dimwit.

          Honestly I’m happy that I don’t work for a Satire Site like the onion, cuz how tf are you gonna satirize that?

          Satire is about taking current things to a ridiculous, and therefore funny, extreme. The current baseline is so ridiculous already, if you put that into the extreme it’s too far from reality to be somewhat relatable.

          Satire is dead, and we killed it

            It’s incredible, the things he gets away with saying. I genuinely do not understand how this is a character one would consider running one of the most influential countries in the world. It’s absolutely cuh-rayzee.

              Political careers used to be destroyed by a candidate saying just one of the types of things he says on the daily. Dan Quayle was DOA because he misspelled “potato”.

              Trump has completely normalized idiocy.

                That’s what worries me a little bit, that he normalized it. But it seems like well-spoken, literate, younger candidates are on the rise(?). 🤞
