Trump has begun to feel the pressure from all the investigations and like Nixon, he's walking the hallways of the White House late at night, talking to the presidential portraits.
He comes across President Kennedy's portrait and says, "JFK, you were a much-loved president. What can I do to get people to love me?"
JFK says, "You've got to stop insulting everyone. Compliment your opponents. Be nice to the press. The people will see you as a better man."
Trump ponders this as he walks down the hall where he finds President Washington's portrait. Trump says, "George, you were the first president. Everything you did created history since you were a Founding Father. What can I do to get people to respect me?"
President Washington says, "You've got to be more truthful. Cut way back on your lies and people will see you as a better man."
Trump continues down the hallway where he sees President Lincoln's picture. Trump looks up and says, "Abe, you were probably the greatest president because you held the nation together. What's your secret? What can I do to get people to honor me?"
President Lincoln looked down and said, "You're too angry and tense. Lighten up. Go see a play."

It would destroy him inside and be a much more cruel fate...
Trump needs to be disgraced, discredited and destroyed. He and his followers and elected Republicans need to be crushed by the failure of their policies and their acts of anti-Americanism.
Impeachment would be sweet especially because Republican Senators would have to turn on him for Trump to be removed from office. An alternative I also like is one where Democrats take the House and the Senate and make the next 2 years about governing and holding Trump accountable. The investigations would expose Trump's and Republicans' many crimes. He'd be facing daily humiliations.
However, the joke is pretty funny. It's almost as good as the one with the punch line, "Well, except for that, how did you enjoy the play, Mrs. Lincoln?"
