If only that were satire
Trump has no sense of humor and is too stupid to do satire.
I wish our journalists did ANY amount of push-back because calling it satire is just a red herring and I wish they wouldn't even engage with it.
Shatire. As Sean Connery might have called it.
You just know that was tossed around Colbert's writer's room, before they decided that might wind up with them off the air sooner.
At least I have more dignity and self respect than a large portion of the people running my country
I mean, technically: the most powerful man in the world cannot do satire, because it requires punching up.
There is a lot of punching up he can do: morality, intelligence, compassion, basic human decency. When you’re at the very bottom of something, there’s nowhere else to punch but up.
That doesn't sound like satire either and it wouldn't be his job anyway.
You'd probably also be more suited to run it.
Yeah that's not what satire means. And it isn't funny either; but I know that half the pop doesn't know any other type of "humor". Literally shitting on other people, hahahaha
They want to see people punished, metaphorically or literally.
