In October 2020, Donald Trump announced he and his dead-eyed wife had tested positive for Coronavirus. It was one of the most hilarious nights of my life.
After spending so much time pretending COVID wasn’t happening as all of our loved ones were attached to ventilators and having their dead bodies piled up in the streets because there was literally no more space to hold all of the death, Trump caught the virus and for a moment, we could all rejoice in the possibility that he was about to join the death toll.
This week, Donald Trump was booked at Fulton County jail on 13 counts of various crimes like racketeering, conspiracy, all that good stuff. The man tried to turn the country upside down because he could not believe he lost an election.
So when his mugshot dropped this week, I was expecting another hilarious night but it all felt vapid.

Perhaps this feels empty knowing Trump has been openly committing crimes since the 80s and has not only faced zero consequences for his actions but he’s actually been rewarded every step of the way with TV shows and, ya know, the fucking presidency.
Perhaps this isn’t hitting because it doesn’t have the same irony as denying COVID’s seriousness and then catching COVID-19. If Trump’s whole campaign was built around locking people up then this mugshot would have a more interesting flavor. Honestly, it would be funnier to see Biden under arrest after building his entire career on his lust to fill prisons to capacity.
Perhaps we as a nation have simply lost our sense of humor. A Trump presidency and a global pandemic really broke a lot of our brains to the extent that everyone takes the world, and themselves, so much more seriously than they ever have. Everything feels like the most important life-or-death issue and it’ll just be a Twitter argument about white girls getting braids on vacation and the impact that has on race relations.
Trump will probably be president again and the lamest people on Earth will wear shirts with his mugshot on them and we won’t be able to truly laugh about this man together again until he inevitably dies from a brutal heart attack.
In the meantime, let’s enjoy the Republican debates as the least capable adult-toddlers cosplay as leaders of men.
