Great job 👏. Just one problem. It seems to have become almost impossible to do satire about Trump. The man has become his own joke, although it’s not the kind of joke that makes people laugh. It just makes them very uneasy.

It is. But I can't seem to help myself sometimes!

And it IS hard to resist mocking a target who’s done so much to deserve it. As Wm. F. Buckley, Jr. once said on a different subject, “I think it would be a sacrilege to say it was anything less than god-awful.”

There was a time I didn't need to add TWO prominent SATIRE labels, but if I didn't now, people would believe every word of this as true. Which is just incredible. Not a knock on readers, obviously, but the insane nutter in the White House.

Charles, this is great! Thanks for the laughs, but it actually sounds more factual than not! So sad a person so deranged is running this country - It’s going to be a miracle if we get thru this insanity, before trump blows “US” back to the stone age, also, that to seems, to me more factual than not!

If he survives until the midterms, they have to get him to a rubber room. He’s beyond insane.

You’re right, some people would read this and believe it to be true.
