Look! Trump Didnt Poop Himself! Yay! Good Job, Donald!

You’d think they’d have learned by now, just a few weeks from the end of the Trump presidency. But people are still falling for the same head fakes and tricks.

Take, Molly Jong-Fast says on the latest episode of The New Abnormal, Trump’s recent trip down to Georgia. “It was one of those many Trump's speeches where you saw on Twitter for the first 15 minutes people were like, ‘sometimes Trump can stick to the teleprompter’; ‘teleprompter Trump, bravo for just, like, reading the words.'”

And then, of course, things went off the rails. Like they always do.

“These people always give him credit for doing things like, ‘Oh, look, he didn't poop himself! Yay! Good job, Donald!’ It is endlessly baffling to me that in the last 40-plus days of this goddamn hellish shitshow of an administration, there are still people in the media and the Republican party trying to normalize Donald Trump, trying to say, ‘Oh yeah, this is OK. This is cool. It’s just a little weird. Yeah. He’s not, not that far off the beaten path.’ When in fact it is completely cuckoo pants,” replies Rick Wilson.

Rick then gets a little worked up about how Trump is spending his last few days in office doing anything but actually, y’know, being president.

To which Molly replies, “Trump hasn’t worked this entire time. So it wouldn’t be odd for him to start now?”

Plus! The team wrestles over whether the Democrats can ever sell “socialism.” Molly airs out Rudy Giuliani for getting the experimental COVID treatments the rest of us can only dream of. Rick reveals which Trump body part “smells like honeysuckle and rainbows and victory.”

Then, Chris Colbert joins the dynamic duo to talk about the “Say Their Name” podcast. And Kathy Griffin stops by to talk about what it’s like to be blasted by Trumpist cancel culture and accused of cyber terrorism.

“I don’t know how many terrorist groups are trying to get a 60-year-old, wacky, red-haired, vulgar comedian. So I would not typically think of myself as a terrorist,” she quips.
