The last T-Day

“Of course, Thanksgiving is a family holiday as much as a national one,” Obama said at Wednesday’s ceremony, “so for the past seven years I’ve established another tradition: Embarrassing my daughters with a corny-copia of dad jokes about turkeys.”
But because 2016 is 2016, we were denied the girls’ facial expressions this year, with Obama telling reporters they had “a scheduling conflict.”
“Actually, they just couldn’t take my jokes anymore,” he conceded. “They were fed up.”
Obama instead brought two of his nephews, Austin and Aaron Robinson, who, he said, “unlike Malia and Sasha, have not yet been turned cynical by Washington.”
Sigh…
