New Ad Feat. Muppet Trump In A Nursing Home Is Hilarious — And Way Too Real

Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell (California) has proven (not that we needed proof) that Donald Trump is such a living, breathing parody of himself that satire about him can be made using just slightly reworded variations of things the ex-president has said in real life.

Seriously, there are a lot of pretty good anti-Trump ads out there, but Swalwell’s might be the only one that shows us that the real Donald Trump could be replaced by a Muppet version of himself, and it would likely take a minute for everyone to notice.

In the video titled “A Place for Trump,” an actor depicting Trump is taken to a fictional nursing home after the people around him notice his glaring mental decline, which was emphasized in this satirical video using very light paraphrasing of actual Trump quotes.

“They’re eating the dogs — the people come in — they’re eating the cats,” the actor says while sitting on a bench next to what appears to be a concerned relative. 

“They will take the life of a child in the ninth month — even after birth, they’ll execute the baby,” the actor says, to which the other actor replied, “You sound crazy right now,” as another man reaches to take documents labeled “secret” out of fake-but-kinda-real Trump’s possession.

After, a voiceover is heard saying, “Then a friend told us there was somewhere he could get the help he so desperately needed called, ‘A Place for Trump.’ Now, he has round-the-clock support and can enjoy the things he loves — like eating cheeseburgers and rage-posting at 3 a.m.”

The guy’s weird

One could argue that, normally, an SNL-like campaign ad would be beneath any choice either party would make during a serious campaign. But Trump is such an observably unserious man, and since all, he seems to know is how to berate his opponents using childish name-calling and wildly delusional, factless accusations.

Real policy matters? They’re off the table for this guy, which, unfortunately, makes this brand of political comedy completely appropriate. After all, the ad didn’t just conjure up Trump’s weird vendetta against windmills out of nowhere. Trump himself, they who made himself the commander-in-Lysol-based-meds, gave us that.

Which is to say, he is simply the Muppet Trump he was depicted to be in the ad–which concludes with this recommendation that should resonate with all rationale people:

“So, this November, let’s vote to put him in A Place For Trump, because we all know he belongs in a home, just not this one,” the voiceover says as a still shot of the White House appears on screen.
