Hilarious Trump Video
Last night the Tonight Show ran a short but hilarious Trump video comprised of Trump clips put to song, I've positioned the video at that spot:

For Wayne's World Fans
The movie Bohemian Rhapsody opens today. In the mid-1970's the song itself was a spectacular hit in Great Britain, but it only had moderate success in the US where it rose only as far as No. 9 on Billboard's Hot 100.
In one scene of the movie Freddie Mercury threatens to walk out on a record company executive if he doesn't release Bohemian Rhapsody as the first single off the "A Night at the Opera" album. The executive is played by Mike Meyers, a casting choice made with purposeful irony because the film Wayne's World, released in 1992 and starring Mike Meyers and Dana Carvey, was responsible for introducing Bohemian Rhapsody to a new generation of American music fans. After the film's release Bohemian Rhapsody rose to No. 2 on the American charts.
Here for Wayne's World fans is that iconic scene:

As well, Mike Meyers had to fight to have Bohemian Rhapsody used as the song. The execs wanted a Guns 'N Roses song at the time.
Mike threatened to walk from the film... and they backed down and let him do the song.

Engagement ring
Added by edit:
OK - The image works for me apparently because I'm a logged in member at the site it's pulled from.
Can't find an alternative source, so I'll have to give you a verbal version of the joke.
It's a parody of a "He went to 'fill in jeweler's name'" advertisement, showing a woman's hands holding an open jewelry box containing a diamond engagement ring.
The version I tried posting here showed a woman's hands holding an open jewelry box containing a finger sized hose clamp, having the caption "He went to Napa".
To see much ritzier version of the concept, go to Hose Clamp Rings / Garage Girls Jewelry .

Re: Thought this was cute...
Reminds me of one of my favorite jokes. I preapologize for the language but it is central to the joke.
So the judge says to Mickey, "I can't give you a divorce just because you say your wife is crazy"
Mickey responds(in a Mickey Mouse voice if possible) "Judge, I did not say she was crazy, I said she was fucking Goofy."

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.
If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?

Song: Happiness is a Jailed Trump
"He's not a guy who catches much ... "
By Rocky Mountain Mike, who's done other political song parodies like "Money From Russians (And Your Chicks Who Pee)".
Share and enjoy!
