Avenue Q and Donald Trump

Has Avenue Q finally gotten an effective new name for "For Now"? Audiences used to love the George Bush line, and ever since he left office, any replacement I ever heard always fell flat. But Donald Trump? I'm sure his name would go over even better than W.'s did. Has anyone seen Avenue Q since Tuesday?  I wonder if they're already using Trump's name.  Would be kind of surprised if they weren't........

They seem to be ver up to date on the election. They have Hillary and Trump puppets, held a mock debate, their social feeds are filled with political references... so, I don't think they waited until Tuesday to do anything.

My friend and I saw it in the spring and they were using Donald Trump. I'm sure they'll be using it for a while.

It's been Donald Trump since at least June.

Does Freddy still want to be like Trump while getting Great Big Stuff?

Given Freddy's personality and boorish ways, now more than ever.

Similarly to this, does Dewey in SOR still list Trump as "the man"?

Yep.  It was already Donald Trump in late April.

I hear they made some major lyrical updates! It's now "Everyone's a Little Bit Rapist," "I Wish I Could Go Back to Clinton," and "The Internet is for Scorn."

It was even Donald Trump in the Melbourne production in August.
