Making fun of people's features is not really going to get us anywhere.

Disagree. With Trump, for example, it's one of the proven ways to get under his skin. It's useful to know how to goad people who otherwise have no capacity for empathy, regret, etc..., in my opinion.

Don't shit where you eat. Trump is not reading this post, not even MAGA people.

I'm not. I'm eating where I shit, which is still acceptable under the rules and, as a friendly aside, wildly efficient.

Trust me, I love the idea of getting under Trump/MAGA's skin. But if we have to become the shitpeople to beat the shitpeople, do we really win?

Not a feature but a bug. 🤪

It undercuts their dignity. If people think you're a joke, they don't do what you say when you say to do something awful.
We're dealing with fascists. They're a violent, angry pack of buffoons. We shouldn't cater to their feelings.

For reference, see the works Chaplin, and Moe, Larry and Curly.
