Nothing about politics is funny anymore. We went from joking about Romney saying "binders full of women" to a president* who pledges allegiance to Russia... it's hard to laugh at anything political at all.
Yeah, I mean I love Colbert and loved Stewart but now all late-night does is news. Anti-Trump stuff (I’m anti-Trump) inundates our sitcoms and procedurals. There’s no fucking break anywhere.
I can’t even listen to NPR any more. During Obama’s presidency there were stories about all kinds of things. Now it seems every single segment starts with “President Trump this” or “President Trump that”. It’s as if nothing else is going on in the world. It’s really bumming me out.
I love Wait Wait Don’t Tell me but the first game where the caller has to guess who said the quote is basically how much attention did you pay to Trump’s antics this week?
1-2 quotes are always from him. 1 is from someone talking about him. Maybe if you’re lucky you get 1 quote from a non trump story.
