Tuesday Sniping: Separated-at-Birth Edition

You know how if two people look and act the same, one of them is probably redundant, superfluous, surplus to demand? We have applied this theory to such superstar pairings of Ellen DeGeneres & Neil Patrick Harris; Karl Rove & Dick Cheney; Alex Jones & Rush Limbaugh; Amy Schumer & Miss Piggie; and so on.

They’d be down there — Don Jr., Javanka, Eric, Melania if it would help, Nicole Meyer etc. — dancing the rumba quicker than a bum on a bologna sandwich, quicker than flies descending on the gutwagon.
