Stumped by Trump: the Onion struggles to lampoon a buffoon

“What, really, is my job anymore? You’ve already come up with 3,500 Trump jokes of your own. What am I supposed to give you? You don’t need me. I was in my underwear one morning staring at the jumbotron TV, and there was Donald Trump in the background on CNN, and Sarah Palin in the foreground. And I thought, ‘How am I supposed to be funnier than this? It’s meaningless.’ And then 17 talking heads came on and tried to give it meaning. It’s time to move on.”
