Icing Elmo

It has been clear for a while that the current inhabitant of the White House is not merely trying to destroy our country. And he isn’t also just trying to cause maximum suffering around the world in the process.

No, he is more ambitious than that. His goal seems to be to do these cruel and awful things in the cringiest, most embarrassing way possible.

Case in point: He has now set his sights on that great and powerful archenemy — Sesame Street. Yes, the guy is actually targeting for destruction the beloved children’s show with Muppets.

Let us pause for just a second here, and ask “Who doesn’t like Sesame Street?” Apparently, out of the 8 billion people in the world, exactly one of them does not like Sesame Street, and he happens to be living in the White House.

The most popular theory, which certainly fits the man’s psychological profile, is that Sesame Street has made fun of him in several episodes through the years. To someone with such a delicate and fragile ego, that is a capital offense.

But I think the real reason is deeper. In its various spoofs and send-ups, Sesame Street has often portrayed him, literally, as a ridiculous puppet in an orange wig.

And that’s the real offense, isn’t it? Revealing that the current inhabitant of the White House is actually just a ridiculous puppet in an orange wig.

Of course the question remains — who exactly is pulling the strings of this ridiculous puppet?
