      “The democrats don’t like me. They don’t like Trump! I get no respect. None! Unfair! So - here’s a story. Lotsa people don’t know this but it was me - Trump - who gave Jacob Cohen his name. He went to the Catskill Mountains. Lots of clubs in the Catskills. But he only played one. One! And it was so far out - his act was only reviewed in Field & Stream.”

      “So I said ‘Jacob, you have a great act (Great!) but Jacob Cohen is very Hollywood so too Hollywood. Hollywood is good. Very good. But too Hollywood is very bad. Names are important.’ And they are! He was a smart man. So he listened to me. Trump sounds like money - money-money-money-money. Names are important. I gave him a name I used once. As a phony name for a blind date. Great date. And later too.”

      "The girl was gorgeous. Big hips. And she had real big… but that’s a different story. This story is this story. I said - ‘Your name is Rodney Dangerfield.’ "

    Fuck I hate these “news” talk shows. Sometimes I see a video with “breaking news” that I think will be reporting on what’s happening with trump and nope - it’s some annoying, grating voice doing the tucker Carlson “every sentence is a question” inflection trying to be snarky and Totally Not Angry. Fucking brain rot entertainment

      It’s anti-MSNBC-ish but I like…

      Trump
      Really only
      Understands
      Money
      Promptly

      Imagine if they had used that. Libs would be screaming that the CEO needs to be fired immediately because this is deadly serious and not a time for jokes.

        Well yeah comparing him to Wu-Tang was a bad idea from the start, agreed, lol.

        Libs confuse me sometimes like when they thought referring to him as 45 instead of Trump would somehow rob him of semantic power or something. Yeah now he’s being compared to a couple iconic firearm cartridges along with the handguns that chambered them. So much better.

          She worked with John Heilemann who is another uber-lib grifter. He loves Wu-Tang and he’s made that part of his branding. I made the mistake of googling…

          Another guy on the news with the Wu in the background.😎 : wutang

          Couple of things: not another guy on the news. That’s John Heilemann, who is basically a rock star political journalist. This guy is currently the co-host of a political show on Showtime, and co-wrote one of the defining books about the 2008 presidential campaign… [fawning continues]

          I’m stealing “rock star political journalist”. It would never have occurred to me to use something like that in a political parody.

          Oops. I forgot to say this…

          45

          It might already be passé for libs now but they loved calling him “the former guy” or even TFG for short. I thought it was funny that if they’re going to use TFG - that fucking guy was right there.
