Judd Apatow believes there’s a method to Trump’s meme-posting madness, and it’s not what you think.

The filmmaker recently visited the On with Kara Swisher podcast and theorized that Trump’s shitposting isn’t meant to entertain his voter base. Instead, his strategy is to make Democrats lose hope. “I don’t think this meme-ification is based on someone’s instinct. I think there’s think tanks and psychological studies, and everything that’s being done is being done because it has been proven to work as propaganda,” Apatow said. “I think there’s literally psychiatrists figuring out how you make people lose hope, how you make people think that they can’t win a fight.”

Meanwhile, Jon Stewart is doing his part to keep hope alive, by working on staying at The Daily Show. He admits that it’s a bit of a moral dilemma, given his new network overlords, but told New Yorker editor David Remnick that regardless of morality, “You don’t compromise on what you do, and you do it until they tell you to leave.” 

On Twitter, hilarious people will continue posting until they’re told to leave. Today’s funniest tweets include those about age-appropriate gifts, eavesdropping gone wrong and the best activity for sports fans.
