You’ve probably already seen this gag — other people I showed it to this morning had — but for those who missed it, here’s a funny for you.
And no, it’s not supposed to be serious commentary or anything; it’s just a funny picture that was suggested by Trump’s body language in the photo, combined with Angela Merkel’s expression, which looks like a teacher addressing a wayward pupil. So lighten up, Francis.
I don’t know who did it. It was brought to my attention by this Tweet, from someone who didn’t know who had originated it, either…
One of my favorite things about the Internet is the crowd-sourced comedy, especially when something silly starts trending on Twitter.
Not as funny as the Quinn parody.

Yeah… but you know, ever since the first one of those I saw — the one about Star Trek, which Burl brought to my attention in 2009 — those “Downfall” parodies have gotten less and less funny.
By the way, how many of you saw the original? Pretty good movie…
That video was hilarious… because it captures the underlying truth so well.
When did Trump hire Nazi’s? If never, I don’t get the joke.
She’s German, you see. You take that and combine it with Trump’s fascist tendencies (authoritarianism, ethnic nationalism, personality cult, etc.), and you have a joke.
Don’t overanalyze it. That’ll kill any joke…
Okay… I still don’t get it. Maybe if they did it as a knock-knock joke.
They’re smart enough not to declare openly that they’re Nazi-ish.
