What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

[Eddie Teach]

I still haven't gotten any cash.

Have you tried that IRS where is my cash thing?

Yeah, they haven't added in information for people on SSI.

I got an email saying the money is coming.

Turns out you don't need a wall to halt immigration to the US.  You just need such incompetent management of a pandemic that migrants flee a dysfunctional America for the relative safety of destitute cartel infested Guatemala, etc.

MEXICO CITY — A migrant shelter in southern Mexico called La 72 has for years been a popular way station for those traveling from Central America to the United States. Last year it received a record number of visitors, sometimes sheltering more than 2,000 a month.

In recent weeks, however, that traffic has come to a grinding halt, and even gone into reverse.

Since late March, amid the coronavirus pandemic, no more than 100 migrants have passed through the shelter. And nearly all were heading south, trying to get back to their homes in Central America.

Congrats Donald!  Promises kept!

We must build a wall to keep those people in, lest food prices increase due to lack of cheap labor.

They blasted "Live and Let Die" while Trump walked around a Honeywell plant today in Arizona without a mask. It's hard to believe this clip is real.

More importantly, is there some method to delay return of it until the last, legal time?

Don't pretend 1200 is something worth messing around with to get a week's interest on it.

Letterman was interviewed on Stern the other day and he said a friend of his "on the inside" told him that the reason Pence didn't wear a mask when he went to the Mayo Clinic was because Trump had told him not to, since he refuses to wear one (makes perfect sense), and the reason why Trump won't wear a mask is because his handlers can't figure out how to get one to stay on him without messing his hair up.   Since it's Letterman it's likely to be a joke, but I can totally see it being true.

So you WERE serious?

Of course not.

Is the IRS really that fast?

The equivalent stimulus will take years for the CRA to claim back if a mistake was made.

Their great rival Death is looking strong right now, the IRS will hardly settle for second place.

This administration has been hell on comedians. How can you satirize this government? Anything you come up with as satire can be mistaken for something they actually do, and vice versa.

It's just fine for the "talent" it's tough on the writers though because there is so much supply of free material.
