President-elect Donald Trump is many things, but could he actually have a sense of humor? Maybe he’s hiding one under his spray tan or his helmet hair.
Last night, he attended a costume party on Long Island hosted by one of his biggest donors, the Mercer family. The theme was “villains and heroes,” and he went as himself. The Mercer family donated over $2 million toward Trump’s campaign.
He came in wearing a dark suit, an overcoat, and a tie. When asked what he was dressed up as, Trump just mouthed the word, “me,” and pointed at himself. When asked if he was a villain or a hero, his campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, said he is a “hero all the way.”
Trump probably didn’t see the joke in this situation. However, we can still laugh at him.
Neither Melania Trump nor any of Donald’s children were at the event. Kellyanne Conway was there dressed as Supergirl.

Rebekah Mercer ran a pro-Trump Super PAC during the campaign season. She described the race between former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump as an “apocalyptic choice.” Maybe the “heroes and villains” theme was a nod to that? We don’t know.
As Business Insider reported:
“Trump’s sojourn to the party was his only expedition on Saturday outside the Manhattan skyscraper that bears his name. He is expected to lay low the remainder of the weekend, before returning to transition meetings in New York on Monday and the next stop of his ‘thank you’ tour in North Carolina on Tuesday.”
His ridiculous “Victory Tour” is resuming this week. He’d rather preach to his cult of supporters than actually prepare to be president.
Trump also spent part of Saturday night and early Sunday morning whining about Saturday Night Live again. He really doesn’t like Alec Baldwin’s impression of him.
