The writers at SNL are wetting themselves over this one.

What exactly was on the other apparent video call? Did he have to give his credit card number? Or maybe it was Five Thirty-Eight's poll numbers.

Andy Borowitz is sulking that his column is no match for the actual news. And the Onion loses out on another would-be story.

The jokes practically write themselves.

Take that, Carlos Danger!

Yes, yes they do.

Also, the Vice article & headline were much more explicit than the original headline I saw. Yikes!
