Bette Midler on the Fakies

Entertainer Bette Midler has been outspoken in her opposition to President Donald Trump.  Midler went nuclear on Twitter concerning President Trump's tongue-in-cheek "Most Dishonest and Corrupt Media Awards".  

Her remark apocalyptic aspersions about Mr. Trump's bigger nuclear button are typical of those suffering from the progressive malady of Trump Derangement Syndrome. 




But not everyone took umbrage at President Trump's tweet.  Late Show host Stephen Colbert took out a real billboard in Times Square, New York City to invite consideration for a "Fakey" award.

And  the Divine Miss M's might be even more distressed to learn that President Trump has delayed holding the "Most Dishonest and Corrupt Media Awards" until Wednesday.  Perhaps that will give time to include rightful reward to "Fire and Fury" author Michael Wolff's contributions.

But it is unlikely that the Fakey trophy will not be fashioned after Macaroni Midler from Seinfeld.

Invade Chicago?

As Comedy Central host Stephen Colbert tried to make sense of the news after a two week long Roman Holiday, he acutely analyzed the conundrum of the Syrian Crisis.  Colbert commented:

The United States has no choice but to attack Syria because dictator Bashar Assad is killing his own people with chemical weapons.  Before he was just killing them with bullets.  But if America cared about shooting people, we would invade Chicago.
