Maybe he’ll fire everyone. (For that reason I’m sad Moscow Mitch won’t be there.)

I’m thinking that they should do this for the Academy Awards. Every nominee could pre-record their acceptance speech within the acceptable time frame and when the director hears the winner, voilà. No more rambling speeches!

Thanks, that’s awesome.

Another reminder that the virus is going to profoundly change how so many things get done.

Jesus - Trump stinks so badly now that the only people who’ll speak at his convention are family members.

So Tiffany’s back in good graces.

Sure would be great to see her go off script at the mic.

There was a story I read a few months back that profiled her. She’s been in law school in Washington, D.C., which is why she has been laying low.

She may be the only Trump with actual brains, but it sounds like she may take her law degree and work for the Trump business. Too bad.

I wonder if the campaign or Fox News picked the photos. Donnie Jr and Eric got almost meme-worthy choices.

I have a feeling this lineup will be the best thing for everyone. Not a lot of subtle in that group. Their choir will be cheering, but that filterless pile of wacko will be frighteningly on-message. I kind of expect the dog whistle to become an air raid siren.

Ah, Joni Ernst. The worst senator in the history of Iowa (a list that includes Chuck Grassley and Roger Jepsen). With luck, this will be her last public appearance on the national stage (she’s up for election in November). We can take some hope from the fact that as recently as the late 70s Iowa had two Democratic senators.

I keep squinting and changing glasses, but I’m still having a hard time telling whether that says “Excrement” or “Excitement.”

In a virtual convention, they have a lot more control. “Tiffany seems to be having technical difficulties. We will move on to our next speaker, Satan, Lord of Darkness, endorsing the president.”

The man behind that setup gave an interview to Variety about how he pulled this off from home

Isn’t he, though?

I wonder if I can get Glenn Weiss to direct my online classes. I know he’s won crates full of Emmys, Tonys, and DGA awards, but I’d be happy to create something for him (though I’m better working with wood than with brass).

The assimilation of the Republican Party into the Party of Dear Leader is complete.
