Poland's latest comedy show: a "serious" PiS election campaign spot

Was that comedy or serious? It's hard to tell!

"Where do I start? This video from Poland is a real 'masterstroke', and when I say 'masterstroke' I mean a total training accident, of course! It reminds me of my five-year-old niece's painting - except that her painting has real artistic value. She also has better video skills than the PiS team, by the way. Maybe I should recommend her to them?

Richard Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries"? Let's get this straight, this is so 1856! Do they think Wagner is dancing in his grave because his music is used in such an insignificant clip? I guess he's more likely to roll over!

And what the hell was that about that 'ambassador'? Were they trying to caricature the Germans or is that their real idea of diplomacy? If so, good morning Poland, welcome to the 21st century! It's almost as if they took a cliché dictionary and used it in the worst possible way. And the result? A kindergarten-sized diplomatic disaster. Jeez, even the worst reality TV shows in Elmburg have better drama and more depth!

Now for Olaf Scholz. Poor guy, to get caught up in such amateurish drama. It's like putting an Oscar winner in a third league school play. If Scholz wanted a phone call with me, I'd answer - just to give tips on how not to appear in such bad videos.

And the constant jibes against Tusk? Boring! That old song of "He acts on behalf of Germany" is so tiresome that I fall asleep thinking about it. If Tusk really worked for Germany, Poland would probably be in a better position, at least in terms of political commercials!

To sum up: this clip is a gift. A gift for all satirists, comedians and late-night show hosts worldwide. It's almost as if PiS thought, 'How can we make ourselves as ridiculous as possible?' And voila! They've done it! Bravo!

Elmburg, by the way, released a tourism commercial last week. Take a look at it, PiS. Maybe you'll learn something about quality, taste and how not to make a fool of yourself. But thanks for the laughs! It was really, really... 'impressive'."

Ronald Tramp: The real one, the true one, the... not Orange?

I am Ronald Tramp, Elmburg's most dazzling and humble president! Donald? Isn't that that guy with the weird haircut? While he engages in legal telenovelas, I rule Elmburg with a snap of my fingers and real hair. And yes, Donald, Elmburg is a country, not your lunch!

Schröder & Lafontaine's 'not-so-real' reality show!

I always thought Elmburg's politics were entertaining, but Schröder and Lafontaine take the word 'drama' to a whole new level! They are like the 'Real Housewives' of Germany, only without the make-up. Secret meetings? Letters full of drama? I need popcorn!

Fibrous faux pas: Nancy puts on a show!

Germany, I can't take it anymore! Nancy Faeser wants to rock the migration scene, but only lands a belly flop. Her ingenious plan? An 'analysis circus' - even though the circus is already in town. Get your popcorn, friends!

Putin's "Peek-a-Boo" Parade: A Comedy in a Thousand Acts

So folks, Putin thinks he's the best at hide and seek - but who is he really fooling? I, Ronald Tramp, could find him blind! While I am Elmburg's sunshine, Putin continues to play in the dark basement. His game of hide and seek should be on Netflix - as a comedy. It's like House of Cards, except all the cards keep falling over!
