Yeah, that didn't work as well as it should. The quotes were kind of beige. 'Where is the whistleblower?' out of context (and twice no less) doesn't smack of megalomania. I would have thought there were some more memorably outrageous things that the Trumpster has said.

Peter, I agree. The quotes used were very tame, really. Trump has definitely said more outrageous things.

I'm kind of surprised that it took this long for someone to make the comedic connection between the Red Skull and the 'Orange Skull'!

Also this comment gets my hackles up: "And in most of the older comics, he also looks kind of silly in his dumb green jumpsuit".

"Hey, I may be referencing these old comics, but don't think for a moment I take them seriously! Now, excuse me, I have to go read WATCHMEN for the 113th time."

Could someone please explain to a simple tech support lad what this is all about? I'm afraid I've missed something.

I might have thought The Hate-Monger a better fit. Here's the original in action...

I find these a bit silly. What exactly is the point in comparing a garish, two-dimensional, hate-filled Nazi sympathiser whose fiendish plans are always thwarted to the Red Skull?
