What's the alternative to mocking him, silence acquiescence? Fuck that! Give this asshole a pass because he figured out how to fool stupid people? No way. Mock the shit out of him, just like they mocked Obama for 10 years. The difference is we don't have to make shit up.

But is it at all funny? Pete turned on another Colbert tonight. I tuned out during the monologue and back in for Amy Mann. The situation is serious. I have never spent so much time contacting politicians, but it ceased to be funny or watchable long ago. The comedy about Trump is pret near as depressing as Trump himself. It isn't cathartic so what exactly is the point?

Has Amy Mann put on any weight? She is scary skinny.

Very thin, but I adore her voice and this new cut was lovely.
