I've noticed lately that a lot of people are taking every opportunity they have to take a negative topic and reference the newest US President, Donald Trump.

Not that I'm trying to get people to stop bringing it up, but it got me thinking about other topics, completely irrelevant to the OP, that are thrown into answers and comments as pure jabs to the topic/person, Donald Trump being the latest target.

Are there any topics that are frowned upon in answers/comments or is anything fair game as long as it doesn't start up a conversation about said topic, deviating from the OP?

Examples:

Comment: "I don't think this is a duplicate"

 

Reply: "That's because Trump hasn't made it an executive order yet."

or

Comment: "Would this answer work for an email format, as well?"

 

Reply: "Sure, Hillary, just make sure you use the correct email account."

While it may be funny, just seems like it wasn't needed and shows new users it's okay to say anything you want, regardless of it's relevancy.

Are there any topics that are off limits in answers/comments?
