Trump Tells Stranded Omaha Supporters That Buses Are Rounding the Turn

OMAHA (The Borowitz Report)—Donald J. Trump told supporters who were stranded in freezing temperatures when campaign buses failed to materialize on Tuesday night that the buses were “rounding the turn.”

“The buses will be there very soon,” Trump said. “We are moving very powerfully on buses.”

“One minute, there are no buses, and then, suddenly, like magic, there are buses,” he said. “It’ll be a miracle.”

Trump blasted the media for criticizing the absence of buses instead of emphasizing the “fantastic job I’ve done on buses.”

“The other day, a very smart and respected man called me, and said, ‘Sir, you have the most amazing buses,’ ” Trump said. “But CNN doesn’t report that, because they are horrible people.”

On Wednesday morning, the Trump campaign Web site added to the list of the President’s first-term accomplishments: “Buses.”

Seeing that it's posted by Rhiannon12866 tells me to hold off on the "WTF!" because it's probably Borowitz. Saves me a little instant agita. Not much, but at least some.
