      What part of this seems AT ALL to be trying to "make sense" of what Obama was saying?
      Also, I'm sorry, but the rest of us are pretty clear on what Trump is saying or doing. Just because you believe him when he says "I never said that" doesn't mean the rest of us are going to doubt the video evidence of him saying it. Just because he deletes a tweet doesn't mean the rest of us don't remember seeing it. Nobody has to make up anything when for some reason he refuses to stop talking.

      Corey Miller Yeah, competence is pretty hard to make fun of. It left out the Senate changing the rules for Obama to stop legislation, so it’s biting but not even close to why executive orders were necessary to get anything done.

      Because there needs to be some pre-understood context for the joke to be funny. What does woodrow wilson mean in the anatomy of a bill? If I say, I feel ripped off like Abraham lincoln in the Theater. The joke has some context that made it funny (that being, Abraham lincoln got shot in a theater).
