After yet another brutally on point lampooning of Sean Spicer by Melissa McCarthy on Saturday Night Live, Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) rubbed salt in the wound by telling Joy Reid “Nobody takes him seriously anyway… Let’s have fun with him while he’s there.”

Watch via MSNBC’s AM Joy:

“Nobody takes him seriously anyway,” Representative Waters said. “I mean, Saturday Night Live did portray him just about as he is. He is an embarrassment, even to Trump. And so I don’t know how long he’s going to last, but let’s have fun with him while he’s there.”

Note the “while he’s there,” because it’s been looking like the White House is making the move to replace Spicer, with references to how he’s doing two jobs and they need to bring someone in to do the number one job.

The number one job could of course fire the Press Secretary, and that is how these things can be done and keep the President’s hands “clean”. (This is pure speculation based on Trump’s reported unhappiness with Spicer and Spicer’s relentless efforts to ramp up outrage over reality until we all fear he will hyperventilate from exhaustion.)

To give you an idea of why the world is laughing at Sean Spicer, watch Melissa McCarthy’s latest “Spicy” routine on SNL:

Spicy explains Trump’s “extreme vetting” with dollies, “We know she’s okay because she’s blonde.”

Spicy hawks Ivanka’s shoes.

The problem with Melissa McCarthy’s SNL lampooning of Spicer is they are often going off reality. The SNL writers have to know when to stay out of the way, and they do this brilliantly. The Trump administration thinks we all don’t understand the word extreme, but in reality we all know that they either have no idea that we already have extreme vetting and had it under President Obama or they are lying to us.

So McCarthy pulling out the dollies perfectly exemplifies the Trump administration’s level of thinking, and they’re incredulous that the rest of us are so slow so as to not get how easy it is to tell is someone is “okay”.

Spicer is a joke, but in truth, he is only part of the broader joke. The entire Trump administration is one big, horrific joke. Their ignorance is what makes them so easy to mock. They think they’re putting one over on the country, when in fact with each attempt they dig a deeper hole.

To think that Michael Flynn didn’t think his conversations with Russia would be listened to and recorded, to think the Trump administration thinks they will get away with whatever dealings they made with Russia during the campaign, before Trump had even won, is so ignorant as to be disqualifying.

So we laugh, because otherwise we will sob.
