The good news is that Saturday Night Live writer Josh Patten has been tweeting at Trump like they’re just best buds swapping texts, and it’s pretty, well, it’s, it’s better than all the other people tweeting at Trump, especially that one guy—you know the one—and also all those other guys. Patten’s bit may not be the bit that takes Trump down—look, that bit’s out there somewhere, we just know it—but what it is is some good old-fashioned silly fun. Now, we know you might be thinking, “He’s only done a few of them so far, this post is very premature!” And our response is simple: “It’s never too early for content.” So, here they are, Josh Patten’s patented Patten @-replies to the big dumb president:
