    my favorite way to listen to the president is slowed down to 1/2 speed because it reveals how often times his logic is indistinguishable from that of a drunk person:

    Every scary thing you can imagine loses some of its power if you laugh at it. Bad presidents are no exception.

    *whispers* what materials trump wants to build his wall out of is irrelevant because it's never getting built

    the president droning on about his Fantasy Border Wall™ is like your incoherently drunk stepbrother going on about how he'd be the best in the NFL if only his knee wasn't injured...

    Trump picking on a congresswoman who used a dirty word when talking about impeaching him is enough to break the hypocrisy meter...

    Turns out this account was a fake troll set up by a right winger trying to smear gay people as pedophiles. It’s been banned by Twitter.

    Insulin costs for people with diabetes have tripled in recent years. This young man's monthly payments were $1,300 a month. He couldn't afford it and he died. We need a universal health care system like every other industrialized nation already has.

    The “wall line” in that fake photo of the Vatican that Republicans keep sharing is especially funny because it obscures the fact that there *is no wall* there. The Vatican has a literally open border. You just cross a street and you’re in!

    After droning on for about five minutes about his fantasy border wall, the president just disappeared without taking any questions. What a waste of time: "The point of the briefing room is to take questions" as one reporter said, frustrated.

    Without taking a single question, the president just left somewhat abruptly. And his posse of four bald dudes is the worst barbershop quartet ever, they didn't even sing!
