Presenting… the 2018 Corrupties
Whether or not the Fake News Awards actually happen, we wanted to make sure members of President Trump’s administration didn’t go unlauded. So we’re preempting his effort with a campaign of our own — why should he have all the fun? The Corruptie Awards are our recognition of all the people who made 2017 both memorable and unbearable. From Sarah Huckabee Sanders, to the Mooch, to Donald Trump, Jr., the gang’s all here as we celebrate their lows and lower lows.
What else but Donald Trump’s ability to profit off the presidency could win the Corruptie for Best Score?
