Trump No Longer Considered Subject of Satire due to Extreme Redundancy

Satirical papers across the country are announcing that President Trump will no longer be considered a target of ridicule and general lampooning because, according to them, “it’s getting old”.

“It’s a Catch-22, really,” said one Onion editor. “There’s so much material there, but there’s no more story, if you know what I mean. He’s the perfect subject for satire, but also the worst. Every time he does something, we’re realizing that it looks all too familiar – as if it’s been done and written about ad nauseam.”

Most sites are admitting that their current stories on the president are mostly links to old stories referencing previous behavior.

“I used to listen to the Weezer blue album on repeat back in high school,” offered one writer for Iron-E News, “and I’m sure it drove my parents nuts – but at least it was good music. This, this is like being forced to listen to Mothra giving birth to a deformed baby Mothra over and over and over.”

One reporter listening to the conversation, piped in saying, “Yeah, I agree it’s like listening to a broken record but it’s more like we’re the record and Trump is the needle caught in our crack…No, no, no – Trump is the needle and we’re the actual scratch that Trump is caught in…”

To which the other reporter said, “No, it’s like Mothra’s antenna broke off and became the record needle–“

“What’s the fascination with Mothra?” the second reporter interjected. “It’s such a random connection.”

“That’s why it’s the perfect connection…” the first one replied.

Conversation continues but we stopped listening.
