Frankie Boyle has penned an opinion piece on Donald Trump and it's both hilarious and snarky as hell. The Scottish comedian is notorious for his obnoxious, controversial brand of humor and this article for The Guardian is no exception.

Boyle didn't skip a beat as he roasted Trump, called out the hypocrisies of the Republican administration, and urged UK citizens to engage in civil disobedience.

"You look into Trump’s eyes and you see the fear and confusion of a man who has just been told he’s got stage-four cervical cancer," said Boyle. "You kind of wish he’d get therapy, but at this stage it’s like hiring a window cleaner for a burning building."

The article was received on Twitter with mostly praise.

Boyle's commentary offers readers some comic relief while delivering some ugly truths about the current state of affairs. His one suggestion for the restless public is this:

"Really, if we want to survive as a species, it’s time for organised civil disobedience. It’s time to stop writing to your MP."
