  • Sharpie Scrawled Signatures - Michael Cohen testifies in Trump trial

    15 MAG 2024 · t was billed as the trial that could finally see a former U.S. president incarcerated. But in true Trump fashion, the hush money proceedings in Manhattan have turned into a carnival of loyal Republican sycophants and potential VP candidates treating the courtroom like a backstage meet-and-greet. We'll break down the parade of MAGA luminaries who showed up for cameo appearances, from Senators like Rick Scott and J.D. Vance to former 2024 candidates Doug Burgum and Vivek Ramaswamy. We'll roast their obvious attempts to curry favor with Trump, with Ramaswamy providing a masterclass in contrived detachment by utterly zoning out as damning evidence played out right in front of him. Of course, no circus is complete without the ringleader himself! We'll dive into Trump's transparency as Michael Cohen took the stand to confirm all the details of the $130,000 hush money coverup - complete with trumped-up invoices, Trump's own sharpie-scrawled signatures, and Cohen's admissions of fraud. It was such a grotesque display of guilt that even Congressman Byron Donalds had to take a breather at one point.

Kennedy Jr.'s desperate "No Spoiler Pledge" proposal, where he audaciously called on President Biden to withdraw from the race if polls show Kennedy performing better against Trump.

  • The Geriatric Smackdown Rages On

    7 MAG 2024 · On this episode, we'll dive into the latest zingers about President Biden and Donald Trump's advanced ages from comedian Jon Stewart. The former Daily Show host didn't hold back on calling the two elderly statesmen too dang old for the Oval Office.We'll also recap Trump's bizarre donor retreat in Florida, where he lobbed unhinged attacks at Biden while shamelessly trotting out potential VP picks and giving a surprise stage cameo to the infamous Rod Blagojevich.Then, we'll break down the controversy around Trump's appearance at the Miami Grand Prix. The publicity stunt drew backlash, with even the race sponsors feeling compelled to assert their "non-political" stance after rolling out the red carpet for the former president.Plus, we'll look at Trump's latest clash with the judge over violating a gag order for the 10th time, with the possibility of jail time now looming if he doesn't pipe down.It's a wild ride through the age-old antics and age-related attacks defining the 2024 election so far. Get ready to laugh...and maybe cringe a bit too! Copy In a recent interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Trump refused to unconditionally accept the results of the upcoming 2024 presidential election. Because apparently, the concept of a peacef pasted J Ineed the announce open etc for this script Here's the announce open, host intro, episode title and description for this script:Announcer Open: "From Washington D.C., where the only thing more delusional than Trump's election claims is RFK Jr.'s campaign strategy, this is Ballot!"Host Intro: "Another week, another barrage of absurdity from the 2024 candidates. Donald Trump is still refusing to commit to accepting the election results if he loses, while Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had the bright idea to call on President Biden to just...drop out of the race. We'll dissect all the madness coming up!"Episode Title: "Trump's Truth Allergy and RFK's Hail Mary"Episode Description: On today's episode, we'll dive into Donald Trump's latest comments casting doubt on the integrity of the 2024 presidential election.

Strap in for all the unbelievable comments and proposals defining this iteration of the never-ending campaign circus! Copy Into this absence of familial support strode Trump’s son, the first family member to attend the trial and who listened to testimony in-person during the day. Father and son spoke, separated by a woode pasted J Here's how I would cover this development in a late night comedy style monologue:Well, folks, the Trump family circus took center stage at the hush money trial this week! Into the drama stepped none other than Donald Trump Jr., the first kid to actually show up and bear witness to the legal chaos.It was a regular father-son bonding moment - except for that pesky wooden barrier separating them in the courtroom. Nothing says quality time like a little obstruction between parent and child!The prosecution trotted out some witnesses who didn't exactly paint a rosy picture of Trump's familial devotion. Like his lawyer pal Keith Davidson, who dished on how Trump was desperate to keep wife Melania in the dark about his alleged affairs back in 2016.According to Davidson, Trump went so far as to block newspapers from being delivered to the White House residence when stories about his tryst with Playmate Karen McDougal first broke. Because what better way to hide infidelity from your spouse than literally suppressing the free press?But never fear, Trump's ever-loyal confidante Hope Hicks was there to do a little reputation-salvaging! Hicks got all misty-eyed recounting how much Trump "values" and "respects" Melania's opinions. Suuure, hence him doing everything possible to lie to her face about stepping out on their marriage. Makes perfect sense!Hicks also claimed Trump didn't want to "embarrass" his family over the scandal. And yet, he's the one who very publicly and proudly recalled the alleged Stormy Daniels affair in his own book. Maybe don't write a memoir chapter called "The Best Affair I Ever Had" if you're so worried about embarrassing the wife and kids?Of course, team Trump is spinning this as just another partisan attack on the former president's family. Because obviously, accusations of hush money payoffs and marital infidelity are totally normal things for a loyal spouse and parent to deal with!In the end, it's just another day of drama for Trump's cartoonishly dysfunctional family life playing out for all to see. The lying, the covering up, the witness testimony - it's like a real-life ABC soap opera, but even more unbelievable!Who knows if any other Trump kids will get walk-on roles before this trial is over? Maybe Eric and Tiffany can come hold up comically large family portraits to really drive home that unconvincing "devoted dad" narrative. Because at this point, the Trumps' idea of a "family man" is about as believable as Don Jr. getting a role on Bluey.
