You people need to pace yourselves.
Feel free to pass that on to the cultists in your tribe.
To say they're ardent, is an understatement.
Annie has a category of tattoos she calls, "job stoppers". It's those neck and face tattoos that don't show up on a job application but are obvious when you come into the shop to interview. You are of course free to put what ever you want on your body. But if the stupid is visible to clients, then you probably would not be getting the job in her sheet metal shop.
Any chance you checked the date on the 2nd tweet, Einstein?

Part of me wants this to be true.

Which brings us to one of the most infuriating logic fuckturdbombs in the whole thing.
Rubes will counter that it's fundamentally different, because the Trump Organization is a successful, established, multi-billion-dollar business enterprise.
And of course: not only is the Trump Organization literally being litigated out of existence in New York for financial crimes including overstatement of its "success"...it seems at least more likely than not that the Trump Organization rebounded from its near-death a few decades ago by, in addition to domestic grifts, becoming a big laundry machine for foreign criminal money.
Now, the "who knew what and when" of that is an open question. But what's clear is that the only business thing at which the Trump Organization is provably good, is falsely convincing people of its own success.

I get that fascists need to stick together, but why, on a day that should be all about him, is DeFascist willing to share the spotlight with Leon? Considering how socially awkward he is, maybe Bootsie feels better not making the announcement alone, but Musk, if anything, is more awkward than he is. Of course, maybe that's it-he'll look like candidate congeniality next to Leon? I take it all back, because,
