Excellent! The more traitors they get rid of, the higher the quality of
the newspaper! Our lord and saviour Trump must be respected. The democrats
are no longer in power, so also the Trump-racism is now a thing of the
past.

Not even that funny of a joke and there were more clever ways of making
it. There aren't many CEOs out there who would've appreciated this one.
I can only assume both sides are happy to have parted ways.

WAPO isn't much of a paper anymore. Telnaes' cartoons were sometimes
funny but not consistently.

America's billionaires are uninspiring.
