Thank you, Päivänen Annamaija, for signing up for The Daily Me.

Sometimes - ha ha - dammit! - sometimes, your inner five year-old boy has a better take on the news than all of the mature, adult pundits combined...

In an opinion piece that has been wildly derided as "The weirdest piece of sophistry since Kierkegaard warned Kant that if he didn't stop hogging all the bean dip, he would turn into a blind wombat," Donald Trump, Jr. wrote that, "To not be heartless and despicable to immigrants is heartless and despicable."
Blinking furiously, Trump, Jr. responded to the criticism, "I don't believe it! My dad says shit like this all the time, and people love him! This is so unfair! So unfair!"
White House Chief of Staff John Kelly warned Trump, Jr. that if he didn't stop stamping his little feet, he would be sent to his room without dinner.

Which Just Goes To Prove That While You Can Buck-a-beer, You Can't Buck-an-ear
MODERATOR: To debate the value of Ontario Premier Doug Ford's buck-a-beer policy, we have Stuart Tudors-Downey, an unemployed steelworker, and Antoine Braque-Braque, a professor of political economy at the University of Upsidedown. It's in Alberta. Look it up if you don't believe me. (pause) Ahem. Gentlemen, what are your impressions of the policy?
STUART TUDORS-DOWNEY: Well, obviously, it plays on the Premier's expectation that his working class base is going to go for a cheap stunt rather than meaningful economic change. I think we would be better served by a living minimum wage, stronger labour laws and the like.
MODERATOR: I see. And, Professor Braque-Braque?
ANTOINE BRAQUE-BRAQUE: (shouting) Gaaaiiiiieeee! Lizards! LIZARDS! LIZARDS!
MODERATOR: Umm...could you perhaps elaborate on that point, because I'm not sure what -
BRAQUE-BRAQUE: (shouting) Little green bastards are everywhere! Eww! Get them off me! Get them of - ooph! -
TUDORS-DOWNEY: He, umm, seems to have fallen out of his chair...
BRAQUE-BRAQUE: Fine. I'm fine. I just - aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh! Why do they make chairs so [BLEEP]ing high‽
Moderator nods off-camera. A young woman wearing a headset walks into frame and helps Braque-Braque get back into his seat.
MODERATOR: Mister Tudors-Downey, many people say that the ability to buy beer for a dollar a bottle is a harmless enough diversion, and that you should, and I quote, "lighten up you miserable sod." How do you respond to this?
TUDORS-DOWNEY: It's bread and circuses, isn't it? A means to distract the public from the real issues that affect our everyday lives. Except, the bread has been fermented and the circus is at Queen's Park.
MODERATOR: I see. Braque-Braque, how do you respond to this?
BRAQUE-BRAQUE: (smugly) I slept with his wife. (points shakily at Tudors-Downey)
TUDORS-DOWNEY: That...that's not possible.
BRAQUE-BRAQUE: That's what she said! Ha!
TUDORS-DOWNEY: I...I'm not married...
MODERATOR: (aside) I need a drink!

Wash. Rinse. Defeat.
Defending President Trump's position on NAFTA, White House spokeshrill Sarah Huckabee-Sanders claimed that he had based his negotiating stance on a close reading of the text of the entire agreement.
When pressed, she admitted that, yeah, okay, he probably didn't read the entire text, but he did read a lot of it. When pressed about what constitutes "a lot," Huckabee-Sanders allowed that he would read the executive summary.
But, would he read even that? Huckabee-Sanders admitted that he probably wouldn't read the executive summary himself, he would have Jared Kushner read it to him. The whole executive summary? Well, okay, yeah, Jared would probably start to read the executive summary of the trade agreement to the President, but he would get bored after a couple of sentences, take out his phone and start to tweet something.
When pressed about what qualified the president to make decisions about NAFTA, Huckabee-Sanders claimed that his gut was well informed on the subject, having made a close reading of the text of the entire agreement. The entire text? Really?
Well...
