    Say what now? It’s not even Trump season, and I’m still reading stuff that is so absurd it should be a joke. During Covid times, it was common to read the weirdest things and think: “yeah, that might as well happen”. This time though, I really have to ask if that really did happen.

        You do have to look at the merch tables with a grain of salt though, as many of them know Trump is in a dementia spiral and losing his marbles. They also know that his rally goers will buy just about anything and are more than happy to pretend for their $$$.

          If that feel-bad-for-people part of me didn’t work on overdrive I’d be out there with tables and sites full of merch pandering to these braindead (brainwashed?) morons

          What’s wrong with picking any of the younger candidates? I imagine it’s a pretty demanding job, so being 30 years younger wouldn’t hurt.

        Yep. That’s about the same level of amazing that I used to bump into on a daily basis. So, are we about to have another season of “you never imagined this would happen, but here we are”.

        😂 OK, that may as well happen. What’s next? Evil magic zombies wouldn’t surprise me.

            I always think that now I’ve seen it all, and nothing will surprise me any more… Until Trump supporters somehow pull off some bizarre magic and manage to surprise me anyway. I just looked up some of the twitter posts with relevant pictures. I don’t even know what to think of this stuff any more. Maybe I’ve just had too much internet for today.
