Late night had its usual fun with it. The only one I saw, briefly, was Colbert's. His writers came up with an imaginary message that was satirical of course.
It occurred to me that it can also be taken as "news", after viewers get around the water cooler. It was full of what anti-Trumpers want to believe he would say; easy to have stuck in the mind on First Tuesday. Just as pro-Trumpers believe what he tweets; sticks in the mind.
