Mad magazine has trolled American politicians for decades. So perhaps Pete Buttigieg shouldn't be too worried

Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner in New York one month before his general election matchup with former Sen. John McCain.
“There is no other crowd in America that I’d rather be palling around with right now,” Obama said. “It is often said that I share the politics of Alfred E. Smith and the ears of Alfred E. Neuman.”
