Laura (Barbwire-for-Breakfast) Ingraham is saying: "When I said that I meant what I said the first time before saying I really meant something else, I never meant it like I mean it now, no, not even know what it really might have meant or actually did mean to those who don't want to know that I didn't mean it like I meant to mean it now, which is, in fact, what I really meant all along as well. . . . That should be crystal clear by now."
"Feed me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses." . . . . Please come CAPTION Laura Ingraham!!!

Laura ("Always pretend an upper-hand" ) Ingraham is saying:
******************************************************************************
I'm sure I could think of a CAPTION which would make the swill which came from her mouth (link to Media Matters clip below) and still satirize her ideas by extending them, but only so far (they would be too juvenile in the pejorative sense that the absurdity crudely exceeds the situation to satisfy the basest of tastes), but actual statements like hers exceed the need for satire to point out their existence, contrasting them to what we presume ours to be, but I know the CAPTIONs I could come up with would be tepid or useless.
Maybe you can come up with one?

Donald ("My way is Yahweh's!" ) Trump is saying: "So here's what I say back to my critics: 'There's nothing imperial about it. I can pardon whoever the hell I want and as many times as I want for as long I'm in office,' and I'm not planning on going anywhere; I can tell you that. . . . . So I ask them: 'how's that imperial?' . . . And you know what? . . . They never know what to say. . . . They just stare at me. . . . Can you believe it? . . . That's called logic, or thinking with your own head. . . . They should try it for once."
'What, me worry?" . . . Please come CAPTION Donald Trump!!!

Donald ("I got the greatest discipline ever." ) Trump is tweeting: “No tweets on adoption meeting today, not that I’m guilty. And if I was, guilt’s not a crime per se. I thought this long before I authorized it!”
At the direction of my attorneys. . . . Please come CAPTION Presidented Trump!!!

Ben ("I can spell the whole alphabet! Wanta see?" ) Carson is saying: "On the contrary, David, those who say I haven't made an impact just don't know the facts. . . . Why just the other day a linguist who specializes in idiomatic metaphors told me that I'm the sole reason people started saying 'It's not rocket science' instead of 'It's not brain surgery' all the time. . . . Talk about an impact! Even on the language!"
"Public housing would make great strip malls." Please come CAPTION Housing Secretary Ben Carson!

Donald Trump is saying: "Relax, kid; it's not like I'm throwing you under the bus so much as giving you a free lesson in high-speed, under-carriage, auto mechanics . . . You should be thanking me."

PresiDented Donald (The World's Greatest Dump) Trump is tweeting: "Without fake news, America would be great already. But the media wants us at war. I love 1st amend, but where are laws when we need them? Shame."
*************************************************************
Above CAPTION based on Trump's constant escalation of rhetoric against the media as evidenced by this morning tweet:
Too bad a large portion of the Media refuses to report the lies and corruption having to do with the Rigged Witch Hunt - but that is why we call them FAKE NEWS!
And even more so:
The Fake News hates me saying that they are the Enemy of the People only because they know it’s TRUE. I am providing a great service by explaining this to the American People. They purposely cause great division & distrust. They can also cause War! They are very dangerous & sick!
"I'm your favorite president and don't forget it, sh*thead!" Come CAPTION PresiDented Trump!!!

Donald (The Thinker) Trump is thinking: "What do they mean when they say I don't know what's really going on because I get all my news from Fox? . . . Hell, I check in with QAnon at least twice a day. . . . Even on Air Force One. . . . Not only am I well informed, then, I get to hear all sides! . . . Damned right I know what's going on!"
Trump's name has 17 characters if you count the spaces. What could it mean? Come CAPTION the spud!!!

PresiDented Donald ("You got my back" ) Trump is saying: "I'm not targeting the media, the media is! . . . . If they stopped reporting fake news, I'd stop telling the world they're better off without a way to spread their garbage. . . . They're the ones who put the bullseye on their own backs! . . . It should be very obvious by now: my conscience is complete clear!"

I'm using "Yahoo" in its original sense as coined by Jonathan Swift. For someone interested it's nicely summarized by Wikipedia:
"Yahoos are legendary beings in the novel Gulliver's Travels (1726) by Jonathan Swift, whose behavior and character representation is meant to comment on the state of Europe from Swift's point of view. Swift describes them as being filthy and with unpleasant habits, resembling human beings far too closely for the liking of protagonist Lemuel Gulliver, who finds the calm and rational society of intelligent horses, the Houyhnhnms, greatly preferable. The Yahoos are primitive creatures obsessed with 'pretty stones' they find by digging in mud, thus representing the distasteful materialism and ignorant elitism Swift encountered in Britain. Hence the term 'yahoo' has come to mean 'a crude, brutish or obscenely coarse person.'"
Thoughtful as a sh*t-slinging Yahoo. . . . Please come CAPTION PresiDented Trump!!!

Donald ("Thank God I'm not a twisted freak like you!" ) Trump is saying: "Look, Michael, you little rat, why couldn't you be more like Roy Cohn and less like a pile of dog-shit on Fifth? . . . You bet I'm pissed! . . . . How could you rat out on me??? . . . You owe me loyalty for the way I've treated you all these years. . . What??? Did I say you could talk? . . . . . You see? . . . Just what part of 'lapdog' don't you understand?"
