The Lost in Trumplation Accumulation
Jan 3, 202000:59:28Tap to summarizeHappy New Year! We've pulled together the "Lost in Trumplation" segments from 2019 - where we attempted to decipher what Trump was trying to say (if he even knew). They're a fun and tragic reminder of how ridiculous it is that Trump is president. First, a quick one, as Trump and Melania tell us their New Year's resolutions; they can't even do that right, #dumpsterfire. Though, Melania seemed to have enjoyed a little pre-partying...
