http://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report/trump-says-sun-equally-to-blame-for-blocking-moonAttacking the media for its very unfair coverage of Mondays solar eclipse, Donald J. Trump said on Saturday that the sun was equally to blame for blocking the moon.
The fake news is covering the eclipse from the suns side instead of the moons side, but if you look at it from the moons side the sun is blocking the moons side, he said. There are so many sides you cant count all the sides.
Additionally, Trump tore into the sun itself, calling it a showboat for its role in the solar eclipse.
The sun thinks the world revolves around it, Trump said. Sad.
