It wasn’t easy, but here are the top positives of having Donald Trump as president.
Well. That happened. Donald Trump didn’t just perplex the pundits, pollsters and his own progeny with a stunning electoral pummeling of Hillary Clinton, he pelted them with showbiz shock and awe. It was a wake-up call that surely rolled Beethoven, who was deaf, and is now dead. The new shot heard round the world.
Planet-wide, liberals are slashing wrists and bashing brains and gnashing teeth and curled in a fetal position begging for their blue blanky. The city of San Francisco is working through the five stages of grief but it’s going to take a while, because right now they’re stuck on denial.
The streets of Hollywood are flooded with the salty tears of distraught baby movie stars who don’t know whether to follow through on their threat to move to Canada or pay someone to do it for them. It’s mourning in America.
MSNBC’s anchors reacted like they were told their children had been burned beyond recognition in a meth lab explosion. But it wasn’t all doom and gloom. Over at Fox News they were bouncing up and down in their chairs like 3rd graders on Santa’s lap. Most of the chairs appeared to have been soiled.
The President-elect received congratulatory calls from Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, David Duke, Jean Marie Le Pen, Nigel Farage and the ghost of Caligula. While Democratic Congressmen clung to the faint hope that he’ll be better than the rest of the world fears. “No way he’s going to be another Hitler. Mussolini, maybe.”
But in American we are famous for making lemonade out of lemons and totally overlooking the possible positives of Donald J. Trump becoming our 45th president. Here’s a few to buck up your spirits.
The Top Brightsides of a Donald Trump Presidency:
- Congressional Medal of Honor Winner Rudy Giuliani.
- The Alec Baldwin Full Employment Act.
- Trump supporters once again have other uses for that collection of white sheets gathering dust in the back of the closet.
- For the first time ever, teenage boys will collect photos of the First Lady. To be viewed under a blanket, with a flashlight, one-handed.
- Book burnings poised to make a big comeback.
- After handing over the nuclear codes to a temperamental real estate developer our personal problems pale in comparison.
- New style in ladies fashion, The Stepford Look.

- California Secession Movement picking up steam.
- George W Bush moves up a notch in Presidential historical rankings list.
- Bill Clinton can finally take that long nap he obviously so desperately needs. In Sweden.
- Kids taught that lies and fear are effective tools. Helps prepare them for the business world.
- First president with a comb-over.
- Nobody allowed to chastise me for making politically insensitive jokes about the President- elect. Ever.
- Four words: Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Sarah Palin. Now we can all see Russia from her house.
- Civil War buffs have new intra-national clash to study. Where one side has all the guns and the other all the lesbians. So it sort of evens out.
- With Trump following Obama in the White House, Orange really is the new Black.
- And finally, at least for a couple of months, you will be forgiven for developing a drinking problem. During the day. At your job. As a grade school teacher.
