he just set a new world record.
"Uh---what did you do,Mr. President?"
After leading him over to the Resolute desk, Trump steps aside to reveal a 100 piece jigsaw puzzle depicting a baby duck and a kitten. "I put that together in just three weeks. That fast has to be a record, right?" he demanded.
"Well, that is beautiful---but---uh---three weeks seems like a lot of time to put together a 100 piece puzzle. Why do you think it must be a world record?"
"Look at the box!" Trump insisted. "It says right there: '4 to 6 years'"

This wouldn't be funny if it was about Neil DeGrasse Tyson, because we all know he's not a moron.

(54,405 posts)In the 20 year old version, two blonde women come into a bar and start talking excitedly. Gradually ten more arrive, and they start giving each other high fives. A few more arrive, one carrying a shopping bag from which they pull out a small framed jigsaw puzzle. One puts the puzzle in the middle of a large table and they start to chant "fifty-one days, fifty-one days, FIFTY-ONE DAYS!!"
The bartender says, "ladies, I'm glad to see you happy, but would one of you tell me just what it is you're celebrating?"
One of the blonde women explains to the bartender that they were sick and tired of "dumb blonde jokes," and decided to prove without a doubt that blonde women were as smart as any others. They found this puzzle at a store. "The box says three to five years, but we managed to put it together in just....(at this point they all shout in unison) FIFTY-ONE DAYS, FIFTY-ONE DAYS!"
My wife, who is blonde and anything BUT dim-witted, still laughed at this joke, but still preferred this one:
In a transcontinental flight, a man comes in to take his seat and notices a beautiful blonde women in the window seat next to him. Quite taken in by his attractive neighbor, he tries to strike up a conversation. He doesn't get far, and the woman tells him she is tired, and would like to sleep for the duration of the flight. The man isn't willing to give up so easily, and suggests a game: he asks her a question, and if she doesn't know the answer, she gives him five dollars. Then she asks him a question, and if he doesn't know the answer he has to give her five dollars. She says again that she is tired, and would prefer to sleep.
Not ready to give up, the man then suggests that if he doesn't know the answer to her question, he'll give her five hundred dollars, but if she doesn't know the answer to his question, she still only has to give him five dollars. She gives in and says, OK, she'll play a round. He starts and asks her some obscure sports question that only guys would know. She gives him five dollars. Now her turn, she asks him, "what walks on two legs in the morning, three legs at noon, and four legs in the evening?" He is perplexed. He knows this is NOT the famous "riddle of the Sphinx," and must be a trick question. He busts his memory, even secretly turns on his smart phone and looks in the internet, all to no avail. Giving up, he opens up his wallet and takes out five hundred dollars and gives them to his blonde neighbor. She then turns away. He says, "Wait!" She says, "now what?" He says, "so tell me, what is the answer to your question?" She opens her purse again, gives him five dollars, turns toward to the window and goes to sleep.
