Politics is suffering from a lack of humor. Nothing shuts off down scripted nonsense from the state run media like a good joke.
Donald Trump has a boisterous, and sometimes very subtle, sense of humor. It's one of the reasons the Left can't stand him. They just know he's making a joke about them, but it's usually so pointed and smart that their indoctrinated brains don't get it. At all. They just hate that.
