They couldn’t even mastermind a visit to Wisconsin (Excuse me, I'm trying to lie here)

“Trump’s got about how long, 15 months? Fifteen months to keep the economy from collapsing before the election, so you can expect him to use every trick in the book he has never read.” --Stephen Colbert

“He’ll try every financial maneuver he knows: getting a shady loan from Russia, telling his blackjack dealers to stick on a soft 17. And if all else fails? Selling Dr. Trump’s patented anti-recession elixir. The delicious mercury makes you forget what money was.” --Stephen Colbert

“The stock market has been swinging like a tetherball in a typhoon. It’s all because of fears of an economic downturn. In fact, former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers puts the odds of a recession at about 50-50. So, you can just flip a coin — no, wait, save the coin! You’re going to need it to buy potable water in the afterscape.” --Stephen Colbert

“If things do go south, Trump knows who to blame, tweeting ‘the fake news media is doing everything they can to crash the economy because they think that will be bad for me and my re-election.’ Yes, this is all a plot by those masters of economic strategy: newspapers! They want a recession so more people buy the Sunday edition to use as a blanket.” --Stephen Colbert

“I’m not saying the Clintons don’t have any power — they could definitely get a reservation at any restaurant in New York City, party of four, 7:00. On a Saturday? Maybe not. But masterminding a scheme to assassinate a high-profile prisoner in a maximum-security federal custody? They couldn’t even mastermind a visit to Wisconsin.” --Stephen Colbert
