Andy Borowitz -not the Onion- but similar stuff.

When Trump supporters say "He says what I'm thinking," their use of the word thinking is adorable.
Trump's racist and sexist views differ from those of mainstream Republicans in the same way that Office Max wildly diverges from Office Depot.
Trump's proposal to require guns in classrooms is at odds with the established GOP policy, which is to eliminate classrooms.
Trump rips Obama's trip to Vietnam: "When I was in my twenties I pulled every string to avoid going there."

Yeah, because we let citizens buy weapons designed for war.

Ah maybe this will help give us some perspective

Clickhole - How To Win An Online Argument
1. Find someone who is wrong: Before you can take part in an online argument, first you have to find an opponent to argue with. Log onto a social media site and type “Does anyone have a bad opinion?” Someone will respond with a wrong opinion for you to argue against.
2. Use the hashtag #argument so your opponent knows you’re arguing with them: You don’t want people with opposite opinions from you to assume that you’re just having a friendly exchange of ideas. This is an argument, and unless they know they’re supposed to fight you, you won’t be able to fight them.
4. Have your team of lawyers from Cravath, Swaine & Moore analyze your opponent’s argument for fallacies: Even one fallacy can sink an argument, so you should direct your legal team to pore over every line your opponent writes to search for logical errors, like straw men and appeals to tradition. If they find even one fallacious statement, it’ll really help your case when you go before the judge that decides who wins online arguments. Best part? Cravath, Swaine & Moore will only charge you if you win your Facebook flame war.
