Can't imagine why they didn't have you write it for real! Oh, but that would have been too encouraging to the Democrat Party and it's sympathizers, the anti-fascists - oops, I mean "antifa". Never mind, I answered my own question.
Vivian, you are NOT casting doom and gloom on me, or my comments, and God knows (and I mean that - God knows!), I will do anything and everything in my power to resist evil powers. I may not have it in my power to do *much*, and again as God is my witness, I wish I could do something personally for everyone on the planet who needs it. But I can still do *something*, something is better than nothing, and humor is one weapon. Not to make light of what's going on, but to strategically lower our anxiety. What you mention, are other possible weapons as well. (Boycotts are fast becoming my favorite.)
And a whole lot of somethings can and do add up to something big. And worth it. Hope this somewhat answers your call for help. At any rate, that's all I can do in this moment.
I don't want to cast doom and gloom on a truly witty and, heaven knows, perfectly accurate portrayal of where we are, but I am sick and tired of not DOING something! What I so want to DO is protest in a meaningful way. What if the country (half?) did not pay taxes to - did not support this dictatorship? Customary, proper, precedent do not work against unprecedented, law-breaking. Legal scholars, HELP!!
On March 15th, join us and mail Donald Trump a postcard that publicly expresses our opposition to him. We, in vast numbers, from all corners of the world, will overwhelm the man with his unpopularity and failure. We will show the media and the politicians what standing with him — and against us — means.
And most importantly, bury the White House post office in pink slips, all informing Donnie that he’s fired. Each of us — every protester from every march, each Congress -alling citizen, every boycotter, volunteer, donor, and petition signer — if each of us writes even a single postcard and we put them all in the mail on the same day, March 15th, well: you do the math. No alternative fact or Russian translation will explain away our record-breaking, officially-verifiable, warehouse-filling flood of fury. Hank Aaron currently holds the record for fan mail, having received 900,000 pieces in a year. We’re setting a new record: over a million pieces in a day, with not a single nice thing to say. So sharpen your wit, unsheathe your writing implements, and see if your sincerest ill-wishes can pierce Donald’s famously thin skin.
Prepare for March 15th, 2025, a day hereafter to be known as #TheIdesOfTrump Write one postcard. Write a dozen! Take a picture and post it on social media tagged with #TheIdesOfTrump ! Spread the word! Everyone on Earth should let Donnie know how he’s doing. They can’t build a wall high enough to stop the mail.
Then, on March 15th, mail your messages to: President (for now) Donald J. Trump The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500
This was fun - so thanks. But hard to sustain the lighter mood when I remember that millions of Americans believe this "deplorable stuff isn't so bad - or actually, pretty great. Feels like a bizarro world.
Oh, what a wonderful time for a cartoonist or satirist to be alive! Not so much for the rest of us, but we can at least live vicariously in your shoes . . . Keep it coming so we survive the next few years!
Funny. I wish this went on for 100 minutes like the “speech.” But, frankly, for normies like us the actual 100 minutes was laced with humor. You just gotta wait for it.
THIS IS JUST FABULOUS. THANK YOU FOR TRUE HUMOR, WHERE REALITY AND COMEDY TOGETHER TURN VERY BLACK BECAUSE IT'S SO TRUE.

Great job, though!
I'll decide what I need to do. I suggest you take your trolling somewhere else, because it doesn't work here.

Okay, this is the State of the Union speech I would have been willing to sit through.
Much more factual than Trump’s actual nonsense—-which is exactly why he didn’t use it! Thanks for the effort, though!
I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard - thank you David Litt.

I had to scoff at Trump when he said the days of unelected Bureaucrats making decisions and then turning recognize Musk What duplicitous bunch,

Thank you for this hilarious speech.
