Is he orange or is he white? Because up until a few years ago he was white, then went orange.

Yeah that’s like saying “Apple reveals Apple’s existence as a corporate entity alongside new iPhones for 2024.”

So, back in the Runup for 2020, and when I still hoped a certain uncle wasn’t a full on cultist, I was trying to explain just how “unpresidential” and how scandalous he was as a president.

During the conversation, I pulled a picture of Trump in tan suit pants from somewhere, and threw some pixelation like they do on cops, and stuff.

That was all I did to, just pixelated his pants.

Then I showed them, saying “he’s so bad you don’t even question if this is real.”

The stared at the picture then totally thought he was just having some kind of wardrobe malfunction and that people totally lose their pants on stage… all the time

IMO, the real scandal was Trump wearing tan suit pants. How unpresidential can you be???

The American people deserve a leader who tells the truth. A leader who doesn’t respond with hostility and anger when presented with the facts. We deserve a leader who understands that our differences do not divide us. They are an essential source of our strength.

Damn right

Looking at the Obama/Romney debates just makes me sad. Things used to be so civil.

That’s a great way Harris could respond to this: "Yes, Donald, I am Indian. I am also black. Most importantly, I am an American.

An American who loves our country and the strength our melting-pot of diversity brings. "

The “undecideds” are not looking for measured, reasonable “we go high when they go low” type responses - that’s not the mindset for this moment, unfortunately (even if it’s the decent thing). They are looking for her to dismissive tell him he’s weird and move on. Because he is and she should.

Realize the weight of this moment, we can stand on principle as the ship sinks, or we can save the boat from sinking and then hopefully work back to civility from there.

These aren’t mutually exclusive. I’m entirely onboard with kneeing them when they go low. But you can do a one-two punch with mockery and dismissal while injecting some truth in a bite-sized form. That’s literally what satirists do.
