Accepting the blame

Post by Long Run »

Another "scientific" take, this one on your level of "guilt" for causing Trump:

They had a little fun with this, but should have taken a Borowitz pill and made it a last week breather.

You are tremendously innocent!

Keep an eye out for the Ghost of Lincoln. He’s going to visit you in your sleep to tell you he’s very proud of you.

Now just stay in your sensory deprivation chamber until Election Day.

I answered all the questions that would relieve me of any blame but I claimed I am Putin. So I was deemed "Bigly Responsible".

Yeah, the thing is a wasted 45 seconds of my life I'll never get back! :arg

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

I'm tremendously innocent and get first dibs on Scooter's walk-in closet in Toronto.

I secretly wished Trump would trample on the GOP.

And speaking of walk-in closets in Toronto

You can probably get a much larger room real cheap at the Trump Tower. The Donald is such a great builder and job creator.

A harbinger of things to come, hopefully.

I wonder if John Oliver has taken this quiz yet...?
  • WATCH: John Oliver reveals how he’s responsible for Trump’s candidacy

    For those still wondering why Donald Trump decided to run for president, HBO host John Oliver dropped a bombshell Sunday night with a film clip of a young Daily Show reporter practically begging the blustery businessman to make both of their dreams come true.

    That reporter? Young John Oliver.

    Less than 36 hours before Election Day, the Last Week Tonight host was still incredulous that GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump has a very real possibility of winning on Tuesday.

    ‘We are at a point where this man has a genuine shot at the presidency,” Oliver explained. “Despite having blown up a political party, undermined confidence in our political system, declared open season on journalists and unleashed a river of racism and misogyny.”

    “Also, and I feel like we have lost sight of this: he has really stupid hair. It’s important to remember that.”

    “It is frankly hard to believe that there was a time when people thought a Trump candidacy would be funny,” he continued. “Because there was such a time. As you may remember, three years ago I guest hosted the Daily Show and, well, there is something you should see.”

    With that, Oliver shared a clip of himself telling Trump “I badly want you to run,” and even offering to write a check to Trump for his campaign.

    Cutting back to current day Oliver, he remarked, “Now, in my defense I have no defense for that and was hoping to think of one before finishing this sentence which, oh shit, it’s over.”
