Hilarious and deadly serious all at the same time.

Post by David Hogg: “Democrats should introduce national paid sick and parental leave and call it the MITCH Act. If you can be missing from your job for months as a U.S. Senator and still collect your full paycheck, working Americans should get the same deal.”

Where’s the Gong when you need it?

Image from The Gong Show, where celebrities watched bizarre and inane acts. The goal was to make it through your routine without annoying the celebs enough for them to ring the gong. The more insipid or talentless the act, the faster the gong was rung.

He’s giving Gollum vibes.

Gollum from the Lord of the Rings trilogy, in a similar position - bent forward and glancing at the viewer over his shoulder.

Evergreen from 2017.

2017 political cartoon: “Five Stages of White House Employment.” 1 - Conveyor belt feeds excited new recruit in red hat into frame stage left, 2 - Recruitment meets Trump and nervously drops hat on counter, 3 - a scared looking recruit continues on conveyor belt, 4 - Recruit is moved past a Trump holding a dagger, 5 - Recruit exits stage right with dagger in back.

Screen cap of Center for American Progress (CAP) Action website, The Trump Scorecard. It shows that Kiley voted for Donald’s agenda in 41 of the 42 votes cast in Congress that CAP Action considers to be “with Trump” or not.
