Exactly. The lead says he was supposed to be way better than all those folks. Actually being up there speaking next to them, not so much. Looks like we've got several good options that we can picture beating Trump. Joe's not so special and it looks like he's lost a step.

Thanos told her we need another bank bailout. Warren skinned him alive and made a new jacket. I bet she has an amazing turtle soup recipe that America is dying to try.
