Best Funny Political Quotes of 2017
We all love funny political quotes! Nobody likes politicians, though. Even politicians don't like politicians. But we all love to laugh at them. As Will Rogers would say it, it used to be that we laughed at comedians and listened to politicians, but now is the other way around.
I must confess that I'm no fan of political jokes. I've seen too many of them get elected. Funny political quotes, on the other hand, I can never get enough of. If you don't find them funny, well, you're probably running for President.
I've put together the funniest political quotes that make me laugh. If you have even better ones, let me know in the comments.
