The closer comedy is to reality, the funnier it is.
So when "Dilbert" creator Scott Adams suggested in jest during a recent episode of his podcast that President Donald Trump should create a new department to handle the ridiculous concerns, complaints, and scaremongering of the Democrat Party, the idea was pretty funny.
When Adams suggested a name for the new pretend department, it was downright hilarious.
Here's Adams:
So now that we know that the big problem was the imaginary concern of what could have happened but didn't happen, I've suggested that Trump should create a Department of Imaginary Concerns, and it would be only to handle Democrat complaints.
The new department could have imaginary policies to combat the imaginary concerns.
So you could place things like climate change in there. Climate change — at least the crisis part of climate change. You could put the Russia collusion thing in there. You could put the 'Houthis could have found out by hacking Signal' in there. You put 'Trump might steal your democracy' in the Imaginary Concerns Department. 'Musk might steal our Social Security numbers' — you can put that right in the Department of Imaginary Concerns. You put 'There might be a constitutional crisis.' Yep, that's the Department of Imaginary Concerns.
Truly funny because it truly and closely mimics the ongoing faux histrionics of the Democrat Party in the Second Age of Trump.
As the Democrats showed America throughout the 2024 presidential campaign, their party is devoid of ideas — many of which are needed to clean up as much of the mess created by by the disastrous four years of the Biden-Harris regime. As a result, Democrats have further reduced themselves to catastrophizing something Trump-related every 10 seconds while they continue their monotonous sophomoric name-calling.

Signal app drama has Scott Adams proposing a bold fix: a new gov’t dept to tackle all the wild, made-up fears swirling in Democrat minds. Genius or madness? You decide.
Imaginary Concerns like:
Climate change crisis
Russia collusion

Adams brilliantly continued:
Now, I'm not completely serious about this, but just think how funny it would be if every time one of these hoaxes comes up and Trump is asked about it and he says, 'Oh, I've delegated that to the Department of Imaginary Concerns.'
"But are you trying to steal our democracy?" Adams asked, pretending to be a reporter asking Trump a stupid question — and Trump answering:
You know, that's a pretty good question. So I've delegated that to the Department of Imaginary Concerns.
Another pretend question from a pretend reporter:
Uh, duh, did you agree with Putin to have sex with him if he stops the fighting?
Pretend Trump:
Well, you know, no, but I'm going to assign that to the Department of Imaginary Concerns and we'll come up with an imaginary policy to make sure it doesn't happen again.
Again, genuinely funny because the Democrat Party genuinely continues to lose it over everything it can possibly lie about related to Donald Trump and his policies.
Congressional Democrats, their left-wing media sock puppets, and the eventual 2028 Democrat presidential candidates will continue to lie and catastrophize about Trump and the never-ending list of terrible things he proposes or "does" to America until the final polls close on Election Day in 2028.
As the wise among us know, we don't get to decide what other people say or think about us. What we do get to decide is how we react to the words and opinions of others. While it's not always easy, dismissing or even laughing about the nonsense of others is sometimes a pretty good idea.
Editor's Note: The Democrat Party has never been less popular as voters reject its globalist agenda.
