Wow. Really nailed the deep down fecalness of Disgusting Donnie.

The relative break from the Trump pieces and vacay from Twitter seems to have done Roy some good.

I agree, “trying to console himself” is too much of a complex concept and too recognizable as part of an actual phrase in the English language to have been written by Trump himself.

The thing about Christie is that he's always been not just a willing dupe but an eager dupe. Even when he was picked by Bush to be a US attorney, Christie was an eager dupe for the people who were promoting him--several of whom ended up being indicted by the NEXT US attorney when Christie became governor.

But I guess boundless ambition decoupled from anything recognizable as principles will do that for you.

I like the not-going-anywhere bleakness of this one.

You've captured the true essence of these two. Trump is an evil pig, but I have zero sympathy for Christie. Besides the deadly GW bridge fiasco and his private beach pix, two Christie things come to mind: the times he got caught spending tens of thousands of NJ taxpayers' money to be flown in helicopters to his kid's Little League games, and then driven in limos for the last 100 yards of the ride. And how he supposedly advised Trump to keep interrupting Biden during the presidential debate as a strategy to make him stutter.

Just the guy you want to see on ABC commenting on the news.

Trying desperately to construct a joke or a parody title for “The Boys Are Back in Town”using Thick Lizzie and the respective girths of Cheetolini and Gov. Crispie Creem, but maybe it’s just as well, since I don’t want to indulge in body shaming (or do I? Hmmmm).

I like how these guys freely insult each other, just like real slobs, and react relatively mildly when it comes back. You don’t want to seem like you can’t take it like a Man.

Of course you can tell who has more power by who issues the worst jibes.

Christie had some more ammo: Burnt steak and ketchup; McD's fot national sports champions.

This has the feral authenticity of two animals at the watering hole, where each one knows exactly what the pecking order is.

Sadly seems accurate. I would've said it's why Christie is a fat slob though. Jersey is a fat slob state.

Why didn't Christie bring-up Trump's public fast-food intake, which (as always) I claim conSOLEs his voters by telling them that there's nobody better'n than they, an _honest_ guy with a 'billion' dollars would still eat crap, like porn 'stars', and just behave generally as badly as they'd _like_ to do…no interest in art or words or maths or science or other people, just another hog in a shinier pen.
