A metaphor for some kind of modern political happening. Not sure what.

It's the kind of careful thinking and wordsmithing I've come to expect from Uncle Joe.
Joe, how do the Viva Piñata, Bejeweled or Kerbal Space Program games teach people how to kill?

Viva Pinata establishes that the things bothering you in life are weeds that have to be killed. Bejewelled puts you into a coldly calculating mindset. In KSP you learn how to build and operate a ballistic missile.

It's clear that "other" is one candidate in particular, and that the broadcast was marginalizing them despite being in the lead for that poll (in case it isn't obvious, this is the current leading candidate being downplayed).

Here's a more fun one. I mean, people will be murdered over it, but it's still more fun, relatively.

I just learned from a casual comment about how creepily Melania obsesses over Barron and that she was apparently putting lotion on him long after anyone would be upset by this sort of thing... except I also happen to know Barron is like 6'5" so there is way too much skinny pasty kid there to be lotioning up nightly... like the guy from that Come to Daddy video... and now I don't know if I want to cry or throw up.

President Man needs a new president suit to pretend to be president in?

If her husband can do it, why shouldn't she? Incest is best, no contest.

Just had family dinner with a family friend originally from Iran Persia and we came upon talking about the accident and recent politics as one does and apparently the Iranian populace is running wild with rumours and conspiracy theories. A prevalent one is that the strike on the original guy was an agreed action between the US and Iran -- Iran's gain from it allegedly being a redirection of news and focus from the major protests of last autumn/winter and the many people killed/abducted/arrested by the authorities during them. Basically "look at the evil America, we need to unite because Enemy" stuff.
