Even people who despise President Trump will get no laughs out of Showtime’s dismal new animated series, “Our Cartoon President”.

This series is written by Stephen Colbert and Chris Licht. It attempts to make fun of the “true-ish adventures” of Trump and his family, and originated from the skit on The Late Night Show with Stephen Colbert on CBS.

Based on the first two episodes, it’s clear this series is completely and utterly boring.

The shows amount to simply one continuous act of bullying and making fun of things that have no relevance whatsoever. The number of fat jokes in just the first episode cannot even be counted on both hands.

The only part with just an ounce of humor comes in the second episode, when an animated Karen and Mike Pence talk about their deceased laundry basket.

Needless to say, this show should have stayed as a late-night skit.
