Yes, it’s time to steal a few more jokes from my father-in-law (F.I.L.). His blog posts range from political comedy to humorous commentary on pop culture.
For those of you who might be new here, he used to write for Alan King, Milton Berle and Jonathan Winters, just to name a few. And all those Dean Martin Roasts, too: Don Rickles, Red Buttons, Phyllis Diller, Sammy Davis, Jr., etc.
A tiny respite from all the frustrating events of the day:
DONALD TRUMP chose the CEO of ExxonMobil, REX TILLERSON, as his Secretary of State. Because, when you think responsible, ethical and trustworthy, you think ExxonMobil.
TRUMP also announced he’s changing his slogan from “drain the swamp” to “fill ‘er up!”
TILLERSON was once the president of the Boy Scouts of America. Or as DONALD TRUMP calls that, “government experience.”
One good thing has already come out of the appointment. In a show of good faith, TILLERSON ordered all of the Exxon Mobil restrooms to be hosed down and cleaned.
These cabinet appointments are something else. I can’t wait to see who TRUMP picks to actually be President of the country.
According to PRESIDENT OBAMA, both the FBI and the CIA found that Russia interfered in the election to help DONALD TRUMP win the Presidency. Of course, Russia faced several obstacles in helping TRUMP win; namely TRUMP.
TRUMP says it’s ridiculous and he refuses to point a finger at Russia. Why would he? He’ll be up for re-election in four years, and he might need them again.
A new study claims the stress of being President takes three years off your life. This may be our only hope.
RUDY GIULIANI said this week that he had “too much going on” to accept a cabinet appointment from DONALD TRUMP. He and CHRIS CHRISTIE are both very busy. They’re planning on opening a Food Truck.
DONALD TRUMP met with KANYE WEST this week. What an amazing thing to see, our next two Presidents side by side.
According to a survey, the most popular Christmas song of all time is “Silent Night.” The least popular? “I Saw Mommy Kissing BILL COSBY.”
The scene is Christmas Eve. Santa bursts out of the half-moon door of an outhouse screaming at his reindeer. “Dasher, Prancer, Vixen you’ve got to listen more carefully! I distinctly said, the next stop is the SCHMIDT house.”
Speaking of Dasher and Prancer, another survey tells us that the reindeer population in the world is falling fast. Which means; we are just three years away from Santa, on Christmas Eve, having to use “Uber.”
On Monday 538 members of the Presidential Electoral College will meet to formally decide the outcome of the November election. If enough electors defect they will deny DONALD TRUMP the Presidency. I for one am hoping, with all my heart, to hear the famous VIN SCULLY quote once more. “In a year that has been so improbable the IMPOSSIBLE has happened.” This would indeed make America great again.
