As dystopian as it feels in our world today there's a way to get through the day by laughing at the sheer absurdity of what's happening around us.
I didn't say it would be easy. You have to actively seek out the humor in a world of chaos caused by our First Felon. Speaking of Don the Con, he's a source of laughter that you can always tap for a hit of hilarity.
Just think about it. The president of the United States is fixated on getting rid of windmills (on land and sea) which he sees as a threat to humanity and to whales. And don't get him talking about low water flow in the shower!
By the way, try watching one of the many short videos of ICE agents falling on their asses in the frozen streets of Minneapolis. Find your favorite one and put it on an endless loop that you can pull up anytime.
Listen to a recording of Trump talking about American and World history. It's like watching episodes of Fractured Fairytales cartoons.
Examples:
HOME
- On Abraham Lincoln's Party. "Great president. Most people don't even know he was a Republican."
- Trump said that when President Andrew Jackson, who died in 1845, was really angry about the Civil War and implied Jackson could have stopped it.
- One of my favorites... was from a 2019 Independence Day speech where Trump claimed that the Continental Army "manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports" during the Revolutionary War (1775-1783).
Abroad
- While discussing a "horrifying Ebola outbreak" in Africa he referred to Nambia, a non-existent country.
- One of my favorites...Trump praised the Great Wall of China for keeping out the Mexicans.
- Speaking of walls, Trump said at a 2020 rally, that he was building a "beautiful border wall between Colorado and Mexico."
Do you remember some of Trump's most absurd claims? They either make you laugh, or cry depending on the mood you're in. Here's a short roundup of subjects:
-Sharpiegate (Hurricane Dorian). Trump insisted that Hurricane Dorian was projected to hit Atlanta, despite national weather service data showing otherwise.
Trump went on TV with a map and a sharpie pen and tried to tell Americans only he knew the way the hurricane was going. Of course, he was wrong.
- Injecting disinfectant. During COVID-19 Trump suggested using cleaning agents like bleach into the body.
- Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV. While attempting to prove his cognitive abilities in a 2020 interview, Trump boasted about repeating a sequence of words from a cognitive test treating it as a difficult intellectual achievement. He currently holds the record for presidential cognitive tests. Yes, there's a reason.
I look at Trump as a performing evil clown who hates democracy and loves himself so much, he puts his name on everything around him.
As it Stands, we have a choice. We can be scared of the lunatic in The White House, or we can laugh at him.
