They actually allowed someone to theorize during that clip that the goddamn Rolling Stones classic "You can't always get what you want" song and lyric are somehow emblematic of .... Donald fucking Trump.

I have been in a horrible place personally since the election. I am constantly enraged by both Trump's constant sophomoric diplomacy and even more by the celebrations of his knuckle-dragging "fans" (he has no supporters because he has no positions to support).

God help us. Seriously.
