 Funny and clever Broadway-style song (with photo-shop interview bits)  showcasing  Trump's ridiculous public communicators' lies.

Context for anyone not keeping up with US news:   the (non-existent)  Obama 6 month Iraqi ban mentioned by Trump's people in the clip didn't happen, though in 2011 they did reexamine Iraqi immigrants, and significantly slowed down Iraqi refugee inflow while doing so.  This occurred because 2 Iraqis were arrested in 2011 in Bowling Green, Kentucky, US for plotting to send weapons and money to Al Qaeda.     

There was no Bowling Green violence, no massacre, though I have a distant recollection of hearing a (radio) sports story a couple years ago about Bowling Green (Ohio, US) college rugby team which slaughtered its rivals 100+ to 0 in a rugby game in the 1920s, termed "The Bowling Green Massacre".   (Can't find that on Google but I'm sure I remember hearing about it.)

This is great..When I heard poor Kellyanne say this, (The Bowling Green Massacre) I immediately thought of Arlo Guthries' Alice's Restaurant  Massacre.  Hope SNL picks up on this.

Below isn't a musical, sorry to say.  

But, the US government situation is, I suspect, more frightening than many of us even realize.  The people who voted for him are blinded by their belief in a narcissist's phony promises, so can't see it, of course.

There are various Twitter posts from people who are probably White House staff, though for obvious reasons no proof.  

This weekend's is interesting.   (FYI, for non-US fluents:    "FLOTUS" means "First Lady Of The United States" aka Mrs Obama;  POTUS means President Of The United States; VP stands for Vice President;  "Devoid" means "Elizabeth DeVos" the right wing evangelical Christian billionaire confirmed today for Education Secretary;  OO stands for Oval Office (meaning Trump or his surrounding close staff speaking for him and manipulating him).  SC stands for Supreme Court.  "Unholy Trinity" means Pence (the VP), Priebus (White House Chief of Staff), Ryan (Republican Congress Leader).  The "Unholy Trinity" appears to have a conflict of power with some others who are controlling Trump, such as Breitbart's Bannon.

In addition to that twitter account, there are others purportedly  from the White House, possibly legit, such as RoguePOTUSStaff.   And quite a few others, from the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), State Dept, others.   No proof, for obvious reasons.  However, I think legit leaks.

Hilarious spoof, and too close to reality.

Thanks for all these. I watch them with still some sadness that they aren't spoofing a Vermont Jewish guy instead.

Melissa McCarthy is so funny in that skit.  She nails it.

But, I don't consider Trump's election to be a tragedy.  I don't like him much, but I won't buy into feeling "grief" over an election. 

I hope you're well!

Cynthia
