    Find myself humming this to myself a lot these days.

    The German eagle, btw, is based on the Roman eagle, so I guess we could just say he is doing his best to emulate Caliguala

    It's like he's talking to a children, idiots, and the senile.

    Except his nasty mouth and tweeting fingers are PG-13 late night material...so all that's left are idiots?

    Best of Late Night in 2021: Trump’s Never-Ending Swan Song
    A late-night target throughout his time in office, the former president remained a favorite subject, along with Covid’s ongoing impact and President Biden’s first year in the White House.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/21/arts/television/best-late-night-2021.html

    excerpt:

    Despite Donald J. Trump’s loss to Joseph R. Biden in the presidential election of 2020, late-night hosts still couldn’t shake the former president in 2021.

    Trump’s last day in office was cause for celebration on many shows, but the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, Trump’s subsequent impeachment and his supporters continued promotion of the lie that the election had been rigged meant that the former president remained a fixture of monologues and other late-night bits.

    Also, Biden apparently is just not as easy to send up. The hosts’ impressions of him lacked the cartoonish verve of their Trump takes — Stephen Colbert in aviator shades is the only one who makes much of an effort — and while Biden’s age and occasional gaffes were frequent targets, such jokes rarely occupied more than a few minutes of the nightly monologues.​
