Perhaps some evidence there still is some life in the onion, even if its been sitting in the pantry a little too long and starting to look a little sketchy.

The Onion has been killing it recently. They must have gotten new writers cuz they seemed to fall away for awhile. They're definitely back on top now though.

Basically, Trump only deserved single-entendre, and that's not really what they do.
