Now there’s a name I haven’t heard in years.  
POTUS retweets his blatherings and conspiracy theories.  
I’d laugh but it’s kinda scary.

I hope Bozo the Clown is not tweeting any theories Trump may get behind.

If Chuck Barris was still alive do you think he would accept a contract on Chuck Woolery?

Bozo is too smart for that crowd.

Trump will retweet a cockroach as long as it licks his ass.

Anyone who’s seen Michael Moore’s only good movie, “Roger & Me”, knows that Chuck Woolery is a dumbass whose opinion isn’t worth shit. I don’t even know Woolery’s game shows, I’m 34, he was before my time anyway, but I have seen that movie and he’s a huge prick in it. It’s not a “movie” movie, it’s a documentary, and he appears as himself.

Heard a story about him always falling for the office joke. It’s somebody’s birthday when it’s really not, your tee time is changed when it really isn’t… He’s a gullible ass.

All of this means that Donald Trump is scraping the bottom of the barrel for support and validation. Chuck Woolery is a has-been, not-so-bright, game show host. His one redeeming value was a nice set of teeth, and who knows if those still exist.

Over in the [Trump Butthurt thread in the pit](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/butt-hurt-trump-takes-to-twitter-again/772428/9077), it was reported that Chuck son was diagnosed with COVID. So Chuck is probably being less of a smug asshole about it now. If there is any justice in the world, Chuck will get some first hand experience out of it as well.

You’re thinking of Bob Eubanks.

The fickle finger of fate may have intervened in Chuck’s life.
