Eh, to each their own, to me it wasn't funny at all. Not in a this is offensive way, I can appreciate dark humor, but the impression I personally came away with was "annoying snarky comment" and less "incisive, witty, funny and topical joke". Of course, my impression is probably extremely colored by my feeling it was just barely on-topic and a conversation hijack away from American Truck Simulator to American Politics, but I also have seen American politics comments that I found funny and this wasn't one of them. Glad you enjoyed at least, as well as the other people who upvoted, nice to see people getting value out of it where I couldn't.
