First 100 Days: Recipe for Disaster
By Kelsey Maki
In a mixing bowl, combine three cups of intolerance with two cups of ignorance. Add one cup of charged rhetoric and two tablespoons of alternative facts. Stir until smooth. Pour into a bulletproof, non-stick pan.
Topping: In a separate bowl, combine one cup of self-satisfied sugar (GMO) and three cups of concern for corporate America. Add two tablespoons of coal slurry and a pinch of fracking wastewater.
Bake while you watch Hannity.
Let cool for ten minutes before serving.
Eat at your own risk.
