Trump Signs Executive Order Establishing Monarchy in US!

In a shocking turn of events, President Donald Trump today signed an Executive Order making the United States a hereditary monarchy, as of January 20, 2017. In the order, Donald Trump named Donald Trump as the first King, taking the name "Donald I." His successor will be his first-born son, unless that son dies first, in which case, his eldest daughter will become the next monarch.

Comment was sought for this article from current House members and Senators, but all had been arrested by the King's Guard, a newly formed quasi-military force made up of former Trump bodyguards and former mercenaries from Blackwater. Their current location is unknown. Apparently, Donald I will rule without any sort of legislature at all.

More, as additional details are available!

Just like all Alternative Facts.

Many will believe it, no doubt, just as many believe other Alternative Facts.

that we actually believe. Trump seems to be on an all alternative fact diet, though. The lying eyes kind.

Trump is truly tone deaf, across the board. He makes life difficult for satirists.
