I feel like I’m in the middle of an elaborate version of the aristocrats joke. Right before Trump leaves office I expect him to turn to the camera, do a little flip of his hand, and say… The aristocrats! Turn away and leave the public eye forever. Take that, Gilbert Gottfried!
For those missing the Gilbert Gottfried reference, here’s some background.
I also highly recommend watching The Aristocrats the documentary.
In the middle of December I suggested to Rosie O’Donnell and SNL —
@nbcsnl When you need someone to play @realDonaldTrump and @AlecBaldwin is busy, why not ask @Rosie ? #goodoldfashionedsatire
