Elmo has been barred from the White House Press Corps, the journalism was too hard-hitting

Holy shit that's the best version of Trump's cadence and meter I've ever heard.

CHH, you hold the honor of being the one and only bit of spoken word media I listen to. I'm not a podcast girl. I don't do audiobooks. And yet when one of these drops, I drop everything to listen to it right the eff now.

Did you do this in a single take, and do the Elmo voice too? Incredible effort

Yes, it was a single take, but I did cut out one part because it kind of dragged on

I love that Elmo is the straight man in this comedy duo.

Providing incredibly detailed and on-point commentary in an easy-to-brush-off Elmo voice somehow perfectly encapsulates the contemporary liberal experience.

Listened to this as I read through Many Such Takes. Every time I re-focused on the audio, Trump had somehow pivoted into a completely different topic. Absolutely nailed it.

This was very funny and pleasingly demented. I think actual Elmo's voice is a bit more grating than your impression, but that's a good thing.
