How long will it be until the trump/maga sitcom? "F Troop" and "Hogan's Heroes" had to wait a few years after the events to risk humor.
Current events are ridiculous enough to get moving on it.
Most of the laugh lines are already there; just use direct quotes.

Given the proof that becoming President is a sure way to delay going to prison for crimes, I predict a huge slate of Republicans vying for the nomination for 2028.

I'm thankful today that the guy plastering the White House with tacky spray-painted crap is dimwitted and incompetent. Just think of how much worse this all could be had he been intelligent and competent!

Just got back from our local rally. Peaceful, lots of dialogue, many American flags flown respectfully, signs with Constitution and Declaration quotes...
And during the march segment, all participants followed traffic and pedestrian signals.

The reason the FCC was founded was that the two emerging media, radio and TV, used a limited electromagnetic broadcast range. Overlap and duplication of frequencies needed to be avoided.
The internet doesn't have that limitation, so I believe that attempts to regulate it will fail.

Along the lines of "Hogan's Heroes", satirizing truly horrible times:
In the inevitable sitcom about the trump years, who will portray a bumbling, ignorant, self-aggrandizing president, always being laughed at whenever he exits a room?
Zero Mostel and Walter Matthau would have been perfect.

Invade Chicago probably.
Let Fox cover Chicago.
Everyone else pay respect to the victims.

People who want to protect "The Sanctity of Marriage" are always people who voted for a man who raped his first wife, deserted his family of three young children to run off with one of his mistresses, deserted her and their child for another mistress, and then cheated on her with a porn actress. 🤔

Tere are several agendas, blueprints, and plans ( and at least one unhinged rant) labeled "Project 2026".
We need another name for a set of items necessary to begin rebuilding the U S, and a list of people who have read our founding documents and think they'd be a pretty good basis for a country.
