I saw this joke on Quora.

It’s “ok”, not great, but I thought I’d pass it along on this (so far) quiet weekend:

Trump has finished a late meeting with the House leadership who still refuse to fund his wall.

Frustrated, he decides to go for a walk while he works out how to deal with the problem

He walks to the Washington monument. He looks at it and says “what would you do, George? “a ghostly voice says”go to the Congress and ask for a separate bill for the wall so the government can operate “. Trump shakes his head, “the senate would pass it but not the house, so I can't do that. “

Then he walks to the Jefferson memorial. He asks the same question. Jefferson ‘s ghost says ”ignore Congress, go to the people, they have the power to demand funding for the wall.” Trump shakes his head. “I can't do that, they voted this house in, and I didn't even win by the popular vote, only by the electoral college.”

Depressed, fed up and despairing he arrives at the Lincoln memorial. Before he can ask the question, Lincoln stands up and points to the Kennedy Center “go to the theatre!!!!! “

As she gazes into her crystal ball she tells Trump she sees him as the feature in a huge parade. Crowds are gathered along the streets for miles, dancing and singing.

"That's Yuge," Trump replied. "How do I look?"

"That I can't see," the fortune teller replies. "It's a closed casket."

That he's lost the presidency, and no amount of behind the scenes machinations is going to save him. Trump decides to go for a walk, managing to evade secret service, to cheer himself up and comes across a comedy club. He quietly gets a table in the back, trying for once in his life to not draw attention to himself. The lead act is a ventriloquist, and it's nothing but Trump jokes - how bad a president he is, his weird fake tan, and most galling of all jokes about his intelligence. After five minutes of being called an idiot, he can't take it anymore, gets to his feet, and yells, "I'm still president for another week, and I deserve respect, damn it! Apologize to me now!" The club is stunned into silence, and after a few moments, the ventriloquist starts speaking.
"I'm sorry Mister President for..."
Trump interrupts him. "No, not you! I was talking to that mouthy little bastard on your knee!"
