CNN Trolling Trump HARD on his new CNN poll numbers!!!

Tapper, Blitzer and story about how he has the lowest poll numbers since the start of polling three times in the last hour! They keep going back to that "lowest numbers ever!"

Dont pick a fight with someone who buys ink by the barrel.

(And Im surprised his numbers as high as they are.)

Bannon reminds me of Baron Harkonnen from Dune.

...because I just hosed mine with fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice.

Second, at the risk of nit-picking, may I point out that the Baron's first name was Vladimir. OK, there's not much physical resemblance to another Vladimir, who's been in the headlines recently, but I try to look beyond physical appearances.

That said, Bannon does bear a striking resemblance to Harkonnen's nephew, the Beast Rabban.


Not to mention how the plot lines almost run completely parallel: the Count had Rabban do his very dirty ground work for him, while he tried to hover above the carnage. At least for a while.

Not sure whether or not Karma is a fan of Frank Herbert fantasy/fiction, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if the current Beast Rabban eventually -- and perhaps not metaphorically -- suffers the same fate as the fictional one. I did try to find a link to a cinematic photo of the Beast's head on a platter, but Google failed me once again.

In the meantime, what harm would befall us if we started referring to Bannon as "The Beast"?

Although the nephew does not appear to have the facial corrosion that the Baron and the Bannon share...

My "insider' tells me, both Alec and SNL in general would be even MORE, how can I say... well, you know what I mean.. :&gt )
Their lawyers are busy 24/7 fighting lawsuits, threats, nothing new.. so they push the line just past where they think is safe...

Go SNL !!!!

I would guess that NBC will keep footing legal bills as long as that's the case.

Love you long time SNL!!!
