It's not so much Machado winning as Narcissus losing that I find oddly uplifting, but the point may have been lost on you ...

If every Democrat gave a dollar towards having this clip of Trump talk about some guy called Habeas shown on multiple screens in Times Square, you could laugh him out of office.

"[...] there’s no reason you can’t write a serious limerick."

Fred Hornaday, author of King of Limericks

A fascist called Stephen N. Miller
has now got his hand on the tiller
of a ship full of fools,
they're his puppets, his tools,
and he rules like that Hun called Attila.

Another clip that needs to be projected in Times Square.

This crooked administration needs to be ridiculed out of office.

Yes, but did they ask who Habeas Corpus is?

Trump: "I also did a cognitive exam. Which is always very risky because if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to be blaring it and I had a perfect score. And one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a perfect score. I had a perfect score. That made me well good ... not the easiest test."
