You've probably seen the Dutch "the netherlands second" video by now. Today, a german late night show came up with their own German version of the video. But that's not all. Turns out that in a collaboration effort, 11 late nigt shows across Europe have each made their own version of the video. They can all be seen at http://www.everysecondcounts.eu as they get released in the coming days :D

these are funny, until you realise that the president of the USA actually speaks and thinks like that.
It's not even parody, just mimicry.

The creators of South Park recently said that because of exactly this, Trump is very hard to parody.

Instead of competing for second (which is currently a very crowded boat), I think Canada is willing to settle for 3rd.

Yep, couldn't make it through more than one more of those things. The notion that so many of these videos are being made is simultaneously hilarious and tragic. :tear:

Yeah the joke itself kind of outstays its welcome after the first vid, but I find the whole motion of this having become a coordinated effort throughout Europe after Arjan Lubach's video kinda funny.

Even from a german perspective, Böhmermann isn't funny.
He tries hard, though. He's a classic millenial, imo.

My favourit comedian (for lack of a better word) is Josef Hader from Austria. Unfortunately he hasn't said anything about Trump yet, afaik.

Henning Wehn.. never heard of him.

From the Wiki that is what he does.
