if Batman and Robin couldn’t fit into their tights (at least Bill Barr is beating the traffic)

December 2020

“And you know Trump’s luck has run out now that Mitch McConnell has conceded the election. Because forget Putin – if Mitch can’t find a way to subvert American democracy, then it just can’t be done.” —Trevor Noah

“In other news, attorney general and longtime Trump stalwart William Barr announced Monday he would step down from the lame-duck administration just five weeks before the Biden transition. The decision surprised some people, because for a long time, it seemed like he was ride or die with Trump. He whitewashed the Mueller reports, he protected Trump’s cronies, he even reportedly ordered peaceful protesters to be teargassed just so that Trump could walk over to a church and wave a Bible next to it. The point is, these two were like Batman and Robin, if Batman and Robin couldn’t fit into their tights. Which means only one of two things happened: Either Barr quit, because Trump is too batshit crazy even for him, or Trump fired Barr because he’s not batshit crazy enough to roll in this White House. Seeing that the whole Trump White House will be out of a job come 20 January, at least Bill Barr is beating the traffic.” —Trevor Noah

“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.”
