Myth or sarcasm (Old Yeller)

The good news for Trump is that one of his family members finally showed up at court today. The bad news is it was Eric. Trump’s middle son attended the trial in support of his father, which in the Trump family is as close as you get to playing catch. If Eric was on trial, do you think Trump would be there in court for him? Best-case scenario, he pulls up in a limo, yells ‘witch-hunt!’ out the window and drives back home for a taco bowl. —Jimmy Kimmel

After days of warnings, the judge fined Trump $9,000 for repeatedly violating a gag order restricting public comments about the trial or its participants. That should shut him up. Trump spends $9,000 at the Wendy’s drive-through. —Jimmy Kimmel

After Kristi Noem revealed in her new book that she killed her puppy for being excited about chickens, a Trump source said it was now impossible for her to be selected as his running mate. After all, you can’t have her standing right next to an Old Yeller. —Seth Meyers

I guess out of those three, it’s got to be me (You know, like a witch hunt)

July 2022

“Former President Donald Trump over the weekend attended a conservative conference in Tampa, Florida, where he repeated a story to the crowd about a friend who once referred to him as ‘the most persecuted person in American history.’ Trump’s speeches often have him whining incessantly about how he’s being treated or repeating some weird lie an imaginary friend supposedly told him. I like the idea that this never occurred to Trump until a friend suggested it. Is this where he gets all his ideas? ‘[imitating Trump friend] You know, Donald, I was thinking, your situation kind of reminds me of — well, the Salem witch trials. It’s almost like it’s a hunt — for witches, Donald. You know, like a witch hunt.’” —Seth Meyers

“He just sat back and he thought about it and he came to the conclusion that, yes, his friend was right. I’m sure he was just sitting in his study with a pipe and smoking jacket surrounded by walls of books, comparing himself to other historical examples famous persecuted Americans. ‘[imitating Trump] Let’s see. There’s me, there’s Rosa Parks, there’s Rubin ‘Hurricane’ Carter. I guess out of those three, it’s got to be me — if it’s those three.” —Seth Meyers
