For a few years now I’ve considered that the daily antics and low political capers of politicians must be putting a strain on satirists. How do you compete, comedy wise, with the behaviour of the johnson and his motley crew?
America’s outgoing president though has given up on the subtleties of satire.
Slapstick, that’s the comedic style for his swan song.
The press conference on an industrial estate in Philadelphia, at The Four Seasons garden centre, between a sex shop and a crematorium, was perfection. Not the political machinations of The Thick of it, no, more The Brittas Empire.
I loved The Brittas Empire.
I can understand that many people see this as a new low. However, for the laughs I’m thinking that this a new high. Laugh out loud funny.
Can he out do this gem in the next seventy odd days?
I’m watching with bated breath.
Careful booking that afternoon tea at the Ritz everyone.
