2. Barack Obama and his much needed message in the wake of the Charlottesville riots. This iconic photo tweeted by the iconic former President makes us miss him even more than we normally do (especially when Donny goes in with the twitter-fingers.)

6. This definitely wasn’t supposed to be funny but I’m still laughing. Bron Bron was ready to drop hands with the President… A monumental burn as the King belittles the Commander-in-Chief. How medieval!
