A picture is worth a thousand words.
But sometimes it is worth a movie title.
Or at least that's when Twitter user Jerri Swan thought when they saw a photo of President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, former Speaker of the House Paul Ryan and other Republican leaders.
They posted the photo on Twitter and asked people to suggest film titles to go with it.

They included a few of their own suggestions to get the ball rolling as well as sharing a few other photos.

The suggestions went on and on.
In this volatile political climate, sometimes people just need a good chuckle.
So, what would you title this movie?
A comedian who always had something to say about the current state of affairs and who is sorely missed right now, George Carlin, could make people laugh even when discussing topics that weren't funny.
A retrospective of Carlin's 40 years in comedy is available here.
