Satire has to race reality to the bottom just to not be a factual statement anymore.
Yeah generally you think of satire as being an exaggerated version of something that's happening... a lot of 'satire' on Tump isn't exaggerated at all, it's shit he would absolutely plausibly do; we just don't have an actual record of him doing it.
It'd be like putting an article out about me eating pizza for dinner, and calling it satire because you don't actually know what I ate for dinner. But I would 100% nom a pizza if there was one infront of me.
