Love it. If ever there was a rightwing pundit who was tailor-made for slapstick pratfalls, that man is Jonah Goldberg. Everything about him says “hapless buffoon.” The Cheetos are a nice touch, but my favorite is the upside down mask, lmao.
Writing parody or satire about Goldberg is a great challenge, if for no other reason than he's already a walking caricature of himself. I suspect he's already injured himself several times in several different ways trying to put on a face mask.
There are so many Doughy Pantsload despicable moments, culminating in “Liberal Fascism” but for me the defining DP essay was the one defending his sneaking into a Maine campground without paying because government tyranny, blah blah blah. The bonus pseudoconservative cage match in all this is Tucker dissing DP and Hayes for supporting the Iraq war. The ability for these assholes to pivot on a dime over any sacred Republican accomplishment demands respect. Weaponized hypocrisy is their ultimate attack on truth, justice and the American way of making even the most meager attempt to deal with the sorrows created by our dark history.
Trés swell. Very trés. When he banged his shin on the coffee table and I realized it was going to be high slapstick my brain made a happy face inside my head. Goldberg's "ideas" are like slipshod pratfalls so how else could Goldberg present them to the NY Times? That conservatism "has to be experienced viscerally" was the cherry on top. In fact I’d say this makes the metaphor perfect.
I'm thinking early Seth Rogan or John Goodman, but they'd probably make him too likeable. Maybe Nick Nolte in his mugshot persona?
Look, for the sake of democracy and for the health of our two-party system, it's important that we have strong, principled Republicans and a strong Republican party that is free of the evil influence of Donald Trump.
And every last one of these motherfuckers needs to have an opinion column in the New York Times. For America.
Wow -- and they say physical comedy is dead
Subtle.

No, no, no, ha ha, if the lady can stand then certainly I can stand up, see —
Sexist ti the stinkin' end.

I always wondered if that was some kind of metaphor then, a few years back I saw a picture of Jonah and Frenchy at some soiree'
and realized Goldberg looked like someone who farts a lot. A lotta lot.
French looks like someone who'd buy his wife a chastity belt.
"A peculiar noise has been rising, irregularly, like a distant motorboat, only slower."
It's amazing how literate this is considering
it's about the remarkable flatus of a legacy hire right wing pundit!

Roy's love (or whatever) for Jonah is so pure and persistent.
I laughed, then cried when I realized they'll hire him anyway.
They can deal with the smell by telling him they're still on remote work long after everyone else has come back to the office.
Roy writes physical comedy as masterfully as the Marx Brothers performed it. Aces.
Doesn’t Lucianne still come along to these meetings to make sure nobody is mean to her little boy?

Good one! The Cheetos were the true star of the skit! LOL
everything here is perfect. i love how roy has JG slip in that right-wing trope, 'you know it's not your fault'.
