“Covid rates set record highs in 38 states in the past week, but of course, the most infectious part of the country is the Trump administration. Last month, a White House outbreak sent Trump to Walter Reed medical center, and infected his wife Melania, and several staff members. This week, the virus has spread to the vice-president’s office: five of Mike Pence’s top aides, including his body man and chief of staff, have tested positive. Pence has not tested positive but, despite a CDC recommendation to isolate for two weeks if probably exposed to the virus, the vice-president has said he will keep campaigning anyway because the White House has classified him as an ‘essential worker’. What are you talking about? He’s vice-president! At best he is vice-essential. He is America’s spare tire – you want him in the trunk but you hope to never have to use him.” —Stephen Colbert
“OK, so after eight months of not really trying, now they’re just giving up. That’s not good. That’s like if Mothers Against Drunk Driving changed its name to Mothers Who Realize, Hey, You Gotta Get Home From the Bar Somehow.” —Stephen Colbert

“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic.
A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night On Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
