Comedy Writer A: That idea you had yesterday, the one about that Top Secret Meeting, how’s it going?
Comedy Writer B: Well, it needs fleshing out, but so far, I just had, like, a Trump lackey setting up a Top-Secret video meeting and some random dude is just in there. Could be about invading Switzerland for their gold.
A: Ha yeah, totally wrong number, nice. A random person can’t just get on a secure call though… and they’d just be seen straight away, what about an e-mail chain?
B: Good point, a wrong email address is possible, maybe JPVance@hotcouch.com or PeteBegseth@foxnews.com The format might not be easy to make it funny enough, could a text chat work? You know, little messages popping up….
A: Difficult to add a rando in, might have to gloss over that. Also, if it’s a secret chat, there must be all sorts of rules for that. You might get to sell it by saying it’s low-level Trump mooks doing it, not knowing how things work.
B: Unqualified losers or hired family members maybe, what about Eric and Don Junior, thinking they are all involved like?
A: Everyone knows they are just an utter joke anyway, bit too easy. What about Tulsi Gabbard not trusting CIA secure communications and using WhatsApp?
B: Snorts just imagine…..you could have Hegseth in there treating it as a Fox News work chat, bragging about a new secret jet or how he is going to invade Mexico and build a military base in Cancun for Spring break
A: JD Vance would be desperate enough to want to be involved in anything, like proper desperate….he’d be texting “I’m important too, I’m so involved”
B: I mean, this starts to become really high level national security, hasn’t it? If we go too daft it loses it a bit….should we tone it down? I mean, is this on their own phones?
A: Hmmmm, can’t make that work. Needs thinking about. What about the rando, what if they are something proper stupid…..Russian spy? Too obvious?
A: Influencer? Live streaming?
B: Excellent. What about a reporter of ….The Washington Post? Thinking Woodward or Bernstein …unexpected DeepThroat?
A: Come on…that would be insane
B: The story next day would be…. mass resignations, everyone involved… just gone
A: Yeah, wishful thinking.
B: Anyway, no rush on this, I’ll put something together after St. Patricks Day
