Post Election Humor With a Star Wars Theme

This one might not precisely be a "Weekend Funny" in the conventional sense.

Yet, it made me laugh. It is from the morning after the election, which for once turned out to be the blue tsunami that so many had predicted it would be.

It made me laugh when I saw it. Perhaps it will do the same for you.

Take a look:

Halloween Humor - Onion Headline: Annabelle Opens Up About Struggle Of Being Typecast As Haunted Doll



Okay, so it's not quite Halloween just yet. Still, this is the Halloween season.

And so, a humorous post regarding Halloween felt like it was in order.

This one was pretty funny, too. A misunderstood haunted doll.

Take a look:

Weekend Humor: A Cartoon Published By Andy Borowitz on Facebook

I have posted a number of posts in the humor genre which focused on something that Andy Borowitz wrote or commented on. 

Well, this one is a little bit different. It is not an article - spoof or otherwise - but rather, a cartoon from Paul Karasik which he opted to put on his Facebook page.

Still, it gave me a decent chuckle. Perhaps it will do the same for you.

Enjoy.

Weekend Humor: Millions of Americans Offer Trump $90 to Resign by Andy Borowitz

Thought that this was pretty funny.

Let me tell you: I would give $90 to see Trump resign, and with no hesitation, at that. I would give another $90 not to have to hear his voice or see his orange face again, too, for that matter.

Another $90 to see that orange face just one more time: behind bars, where he belongs (but where I don't ever realistically expect to see him). 

Ah, nice daydreams to indulge in.

In any case, thought that this little piece by Andy Borowitz might put a smile on someone's face, as it did mine.

Enjoy.

Weekend Humor: A Solid Commitment to Stupidity & Stubbornness

By now, if you still are a devout supporter of Trump, you are either extremely stubborn or, frankly, extremely stupid. 

I mean, seriously, let's reflect: he has not kept any of his major campaign promises for either term except the over-the-top, theatrical crackdown on immigrants. Note that this does not mean "illegal immigrants" or "criminals," but just immigrants in general. He has shut down most immigrations, except for white South Africans, whom he has bent over backwards to make feel at home here in the United States. Beyond that, it has been all lies. He did not "drain the swamp," and has instead ushered in an unprecedented, never before seen level of out in the open corruption like the world has never seen before. He did not become the greatest jobs creating president in history (either term). He did not bring back jobs in particular to the rust belt or make the United States a manufacturing superpower as he promised to do. He did not build the wall and make Mexico pay for it. He did not build a national healthcare system that would be affordable and cover everyone. He did not pay off the national debt in eight years, and instead added something like 30% to the national debt, in large part to provide still more tax cuts and incentives to the very wealthiest and most privileges Americans. He did not lower the price of gas and groceries or get the economy working again. He did not make the United States a very respected world power and, in fact, has outright disgraced the United States, and Americans generally, with his disgusting behavior numerous times (unable to criticize Nazis and white supremacists, referring to dozens of other countries as "shithole nations," being laughed at literally to his face during a speech before the United Nations, flirting outright with the possibility of militarily taking over Greenland, starting an ill-advised war with Iran and then insulting allies before asking for their assistance, then insulting them again when they refused to participate in his war. He did not end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours, or even end it after nearly two years back in office. He did not keep his promise not to start any new endless wars for the United States. He did not release the Epstein Files and, in fact, has gone to such extraordinary lengths to prevent them from being released that it seems downright suspicious. 

Okay, so we know what he has not done. Let's take a look at what he has done, and just since January of 2025 (which feels so long ago now). He went ahead with his ill-advised tariffs, which experts (and common sense) shows has pretty much hurt the economy and strongly contributed to inflation. He has destroyed traditional alliances, particularly with Europe, Canada, and Mexico. He has gotten most of the rest of the world to distrust and dislike the United States, especially with his war with Iran. 

For the most part, most people no longer view the United States as a respected superpower. Many people view the United States as having gone rogue, and turned it's back on what actually made it a superpower. Namely, the strong alliances which it successfully fostered for many decades following the end of World War II. That is already pretty much ruined because of one man: Donald Trump. And he in turn was in power to do that damage because of one group of people: those who voted for him. Trump continues to do the maximum damage possible because of those tens of millions of people who support him. Some people are suggesting that this is the end of the United States as a superpower. And I, for one, believe that there is a case to be made for it.

Also, the damage that Trump has done to the country is not only restricted to our traditional alliances, or how we are perceived by the rest of the world. No, the cruelty that he has ushered in, his ability to get the very worst, the darkest of the character traits of Americans, will be a shameful chapter in American history. This chapter saw the rise of cruelty and greed and gluttony in full display, no longer even bothering to hide in shame. This chapter saw the rise of fascism and the clear fragility of democracy in decline. This chapter brought the United States closer to a civil war than anything that the country has seen since the first Civil War. And this chapter sure seems to be seeing the very wealthiest Americans creating a new feudal order for the 21st century, an economy of the few haves and the masses of have nots. 

If you pretend not to see it or look the other way, or den that Donald Trump is ever worse than the dire predictions before he was elected (both times), than yes, you are the problem. You are what's wrong with this country. And yes, indeed, you're commitment to stupidity & stubbornness is indeed impressive.

Not to mention destructive.

Weekend Funny: Just Imagine Trump's Reaction....If Mark Carney Wins the Nobel Peace Prize

This was hilarious and made me laugh.

I mean, seriously. Just picture Trump's reaction if and when Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney would win the Nobel Peace Prize, which Trump clearly wants so badly. Imagine how much that would tick Trump off, and his reaction. 

Not sure it will happen. And who knows if the reality would not actually be a nightmare. With Trump in charge, it's hard to dismiss the most nightmarish possibilities becoming reality.

Still, it gave me a good chuckle, just thinking about what Trump's reaction might be if this actually did come to pass. 

Take a look, and enjoy.

Weekend Humor: Canada Knows the Proper Way to Handle Trump's Ridiculous Rants ·

Saw this cartoon, and immediately felt it was worth sharing here.

Indeed, Canada does seem to have the adults in the room in terms of leadership. And they sure seem to comprehend the truly proper way to deal with Trump's absurd rants and raves and tantrums. Just basically sweep it under the rug without paying it too much mind, and then go about your business.

Once again, it seems we Americans can learn something from our neighbors to the North.

Take a look and enjoy:

Weekend Humor: Trump as Anton Chigurh From "No Country For Old Men"

Not too long ago, Trump was mocked when he appeared to have changed his hair color.

It's strange. This guy's hair seems to make the headlines all of the time lately. To me, it's one of the least important things about Trump and the damage that he is doing to the country. Yet, it also is symbolic of how fake this man and his entire image really is.

One social media post which I recently saw (see link below) showed Trump as the villain Anton Chigurh from the movie "No Country For Old Men," which is based on the Cormac McCarthy novel by the same name. Indeed, it feels like Trump is about that level of a threat to the country, and indeed the world, as Chigurh posed to individuals in that movie.

Anyway, here it is:

Weekend Humor: The Borowitz Report Mark Carney Offers Americans $6000 to Vote Against Republicans

Thought that this was fairly amusing.

In a satirical article, Andy Borowitz reported about how in the aftermath of Trump promising Americans $5,000 checks if they keep Republicans in power after the coming elections in November, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney offered Americans $6,000 to vote against Trump and the GOP.

Wish it were so. Although by this point, frankly, I would gladly forsake a $5,000 check simply in order to throw out the fascists and restore what remains of our democracy.

Anyway, this felt worth sharing here.

Enjoy:

Post Labor Day Weekend Humor: Trump Supporters Wearing White After Labor Day

Saw this post, and it made me laugh.

If you are offended by this, then most likely it is because you are part of what has gone terribly wrong with the United States in recent years.

This is meant as a joke, an exaggeration. Yet sometimes, you have to wonder if it really is that much of an exaggeration, or if there is some truth to it.

Here is a post I found on Facebook suggesting that Trump supporters were debating the merits of wearing white after Labor Day. But the picture is of a really by the Ku Klux Klan.

Hey, if the shoe fits....

Weekend Humor? Cartoon Illustrates Blatant Trump Corruption

Saw this cartoon last month, and thought that it was both disturbing, while also being quite telling and worth sharing here.

Really, this feels like a dark cartoon because it speaks the truth. Indeed, Trump has turned out to be a nightmare, both for the country as well as for the world. And while the numbers and enthusiasm finally seem to have diminished a little bit, there still exists tens of millions of MAGA supporters applauding all of this.

Nobody can say that there were not plenty of warnings. Indeed, there was no shortage of warnings. 

Perhaps that was the problem. People seem to think that warnings like this are overdone. Trump knew that and used it to his advantage, making the case to those who wanted to be convinced that he was the victim of a conspiracy and a political witch hunt. 

Then, he got in power and proved all of those warnings were accurate predictions of just how bad this Trump presidency would turn out to be.

Yet, some people still act shocked - Shocked! - that the Trump presidency has turned out to be quite this bad.

It's almost like putting a blatantly corrupt, transparently selfish and narcissistic man completely lacking any serious qualifications into our highest office was not a very good idea.

Who knew?

Weekend Humor: Even the Twilight Zone....


Statue of Rod Serling in Binghamton, New York


There are moments when the times we are living in feel more like they should be an episode of The Twilight Zone rather than our reality.

Yet, these strange times indeed are the reality. All kidding aside, it feels like sometimes, these bizarre times make the Twilight Zone episodes of all seem tame by way of comparison. 

So when I saw this post on Facebook recently, it gave me a chuckle. It also felt like something worth sharing here.

Enjoy.

Weekend Humor: Just When You Thought...

This one I simply found funny.

Funny because it's true, frankly. Every time that you think Donald Trump could not be  worse human being - let alone an alleged "leader" - than he has proven to be, he does something even worse. It does not take long to realize this. Usually, just wait a day or two in the news cycle for proof of this grim reality. Trump will always provide abundant proof that he is an absolutely low class (maybe no class) excuse for a human being.

Weekend Humor: A Presidency That is Aging the Country

"The presidency is supposed to age the president, not the country."

~ Jon Stewart on The Daily Show


Supposedly, Trump said that his life was both better and easier before he became president.

Frankly, I think the majority of Americans would say the same thing. 

Also, instead of whining about it, why not step down? 

Of course, I suspect that it's his ego which will not allow him to step down.

Anyway, I ran into this and thought it was funny and worth sharing here.

Enjoy.




Myron Guyton September 3, 2026  · Really, the world was a better place before he was in office. Time to vote the trumpers out of office and put the law breakers behind bars. A “trumper” is someone that will do anything and everything, even if it’s unlawful to praise trump, not the USA.

Weekend Funny: Renaming a Lake as a Sign of Strength & Brilliant Deal-Making

Here was another comic relief spotted on Facebook which seemed worth sharing here.

The whole idea of this guy supposedly being some tough guy and brilliant, genius of a dealmaker, when it is obvious that he is neither of those things, is frankly laughable. It would actually be funny, if it was not having such a horrible effect for so many people around the world. 

Can't make a deal with Iran and apparently cannot bring the conflict he started to an end? 

Just claim that you won the war already. In fact, it was won within the first two hours, even though we now have reached over six months in the seemingly never-ending conflict. Oh, and repeat after George W. Bush - even inserting an image of the former president - complete with your own "Mission Accomplished" faux pas.

That will teach 'em.

Can't bully Canada into giving you what you want, even if the rest of the world views what you want as excessive and unfair?

Just call them the "51st state" and refer to the Prime Minister as "governor" once again. Nobody got tired of that at all. No, that's a sign of strength and maturity, reflecting well on the dignity of the White House.

Oh, and make sure to rename a lake.

That will teach 'em.

What a bad joke this man and his "leadership" has proven to be. All of this was unfortunately, even tragically predictable. But his loyal supporters will never admit anything.

It should be funny, although it's actually quite sad, frankly.

Anyway, thought that this was worth sharing.

Enjoy.

Weekend Humor: Canada Responds & Renames Lake Ontario

Now, this game me a good chuckle.

Obviously, it is not true. In fact, I doubt that Canada will ever actually rename Lake Ontario. If they did, however, renaming it "The Straight of Our Moose" would indeed be wonderful rebranding.

But I doubt that anyone can match Trump's trademark pettiness and immaturity. 

If they did decide to rename things, however, the "Strait of Our Moose" sounds like a really fitting name to me. 

Plus, it would get under his very thin orange skin all the more, reminding him of what seems increasingly to be his Waterloo.

Weekend Humor: Jabba the Trump

Years ago, Nate White, a British journalist, compared Trump to Jabba the Hut, specifically suggesting that Trump was a "Jabba the Hut of privilege."

Of course, there was a lot more to it that piece by White than that, and I would recommend it. For whatever reason, I am having trouble finding the link, specifically. If I find it, I will add it later on.

Anyway, for the second time, I saw a reference suggesting that Trump seemed to be closer to being Jabba the Hut recently.

Thought it was pretty funny. Take a look:

Cartoon Illustrates MAGA Hypocrisy With the Constant & Tiresome "It's Okay When Trump Does It" Mentality

This cartoon was from a few weeks ago, back when Fauci pleading the fifth suggested to MAGA that he was guilty.

Yet of course, when Trump did it - over four hundred times in one court case! - it was swept under the rug. He was just being smart, or he was just protecting himself against the political witch hunt by the leftist lunatics.

Right.

Anyway, I thought that this cartoon pretty much makes that case, illustrating the MAGA hypocrisy which has become such a constant, if tiresome, reality in our current political landscape.

Take a look:

Stephen King Launches Fresh Attacks Against Trump


Say what you will, but I have never been prouder to be a fan of Stephen King than during this era of Donald Trump. Yeah, I know that some people act offended and outraged that King has expressed vehement opposition to Trump. But then I remember that those people are the "Fuck Your Feelings" crowd, and that they feel that they are entitled to define what patriotism is in the United States, and it makes me angry and more determined than ever to stand in opposition to their bullshit.

And so I not only accept King's recent political activism, but in fact welcome it. To me, it shows substance over style. Some famous artists hesitate to do that. Recently, I ran into something about actor Tom Selleck, who put up very mild criticism of Trump, but then explained that he did not want to go too far with his criticism, since Trump fans watch movies and television shows, as well, and he did not want to have the numbers of people watching him on the screen compromised.

Fuck that.

From here on out, in fact, I intend to make a point not to watch Tom Selleck if I can help it. Also, I intend to continue to support King and buy and read his books. 

Trump represents a turn to arrogance, to hubris, to narcissism for this country. And of course, MAGA is a step towards fascism. You either are dead set against it, or you basically lend your support of it. Respect to all of those who make no bones about it, who take a strong stand. Some things are too important to worry about offending the narrow-minded morons and playing it safe with, at best, a wishy-washy approach towards Trumpism and MAGA. 

Absolutely not. This is the time to stand tall and speak loudly and clearly and voice you opposition to everything that this xenophobic, fascist movement represents. Otherwise, we lose what remains of our democracy. Already, it feels like we have lost entirely too much of what remained of the good of the United States prior to this era of Trump and the Mindless MAGA Moron Cult dominating American politics. 

So respect to King in this case. He has left absolutely no doubt as to where he stands regarding Trump and the MAGA movement. King has repeatedly launched attacks against Trump and MAGA, and recently did so again.

Referring to Trump claiming that his poll numbers are high - in complete contradiction to reality, as per usual - King warned voters about what happens when they take their vote for granted, or allow a lying malignant narcissist to gain power:

Trump's numbers are in the basement, but he doesn't care. This narcissistic megalomaniac actually believes his poll numbers are "the best they've ever been."  

Next time, be careful who you vote for. Don't do it casually. It does make a difference.

King had a couple of humorous posts about Trump's decided lack of intelligence, as well as his ridiculous, "jacking off" dance, as well, in recent days:

Stephen King @StephenKing Aug 4  

900 hundred days left for the president with the big behind and empty head. Then we can start repairing the damage he’s done. Starting with NO BALLROOM and RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!  

Stephen King @StephenKing Aug 4  The next time you see Trump doing the Old-Man boogie to YMCA, remember he’s dancing all over the First Amendment. 75 tries to muzzle shit he doesn’t like, all but one thrown out of court.

Again, some people do not like it. But to me, it shows that King values something more than himself or the bottom line of his sales numbers, and thus not offending the entitled morons who are ruining this country. They are the definition of that expression about giving someone an inch and they take a mile. This bullshit needs to be put to an end now. And it's not going to happen unless we all take a strong, united, and very clear stand against it. That is why now more than ever, I support artists who are willing to show backbone and integrity and take a strong stand. It is also why I lose all respect for those in love with their own celebrity status, like Tom Selleck.  

I applaud Stephen King regarding his attacks against Trump and MAGA.
