Andrew Malcolm: The president walks into a bar: How humor has changed in the Trump era

So, Bill Clinton walks into a bar with a parrot on his shoulder. Bartender says, "Does he talk?"

Parrot says, "Not for less than 500 grand."

That's an old-fashioned political joke _ old-fashioned as in the 1990s. It takes a recognizable slice of truth, gives it an unexpected twist and out comes a little laugh that leaves no mark.
