    Oh no, he found out about the Transsylvania plans. But I assume Wokesconsin, Gaybraska and Lesbiana are still a go?

        There will still be the schism between liberals and conservatives. The western half still get all goth, wear fangs, and have blood ceremonies, as Bram Stoker intended and rural families have practiced through the years. Meanwhile the damned woke eastern half will be all crossdressing, and surgical mutilation on a whim, “girls will be boys and boys will be girls. It’s a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world …” and engaging in all sorts of unnatural Kinks

    The evil libs are gonna rename it Pedovania and kick out all the straight white christians and turn the state into an adrenochrome harvesting child sex facility!

    and because we live in a post-poe world, I have to emphasize, emphatically, that this is sarcasm.

    My god, the man is insane. And people are talking about how unfit Biden is because he mixes up world leaders and dates?

      Interesting to learn so much about how Fascism works, because of Trump. Making crazy statements, as a type of blind loyalty test is instinctual for fascist leaders. Alienates his followers from normal people, forces them to believe in even crazier things.

      Meanwhile Trump has never even heard of these people or what happened on those dates…

      Instead we get classics like this from the certified genius …

      “Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV. See how smart I am, not many people can remember 5 things…”

      and

      “that dementia test was quite challenging but I passed it, not many other people would be smart enough to pass it”

      He is very vaguely suggesting the Dems will purge all connections to the past. It’s a calculated talking point. He isn’t insane or stupid; he is evil.

          You couldn’t be more off base. The worst thing to do is to keep dismissing Trump as “stupid.” What possible reason could you have for underestimating him and the rest of the conservative party, especially in their capacity for evil?

            He’s a useful idiot. I think Trump has no brains of his own, but he just absorbs whatever he is told by people who are evil and regurgitates it.

    Penn was a slave owner but among plutocrats in the 1600s he’s about as good as it gets. He treated native Americans well (and to whatever extent you want to credit it, he treated his slaves better than most) and liked democracy and religious freedom.

    So if you want to credit the morsel of an idea here, he is probably trying to say that even though Penn was an OK guy relative to the times, he could get “cancelled” because he was a slave owner and then “they” would force the state to change its name because Penn was canceled.

    But obviously, half muttering nonsense that can be interpreted favorably by anyone with whatever beliefs if they so choose is Trump’s super power so I’m all for reading this uncharitably and just saying he’s being weird and crazy.

    “I promise you this, with me at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, no one will lay a finger on your firearms — just as took place for four years when I was your president,”

    Trump banned bump stocks, which laid the basis for the pistol brace ban, both of which conservative 2a meisters absolutely love, right? And this was at a NRA conference? I don’t get how people know he did that and hate him for it, but will immediately forget their hatred in order to defend him on any other ground. MAGA is a cult.

      He was worse for guns than Biden. How the fuck do these people reconcile this shit with their beliefs?

        Being a member of the pro-gun community already requires living in a fantasy. A few more lies and hollow promises shouldn’t be a problem for them.

        Besides, this shit is easy when you’ve got no integrity at all. Just say anything. “Trump banned bump stocks so that it could be struck down by the Supreme Court and then the deep state wouldn’t be able to take our guns but we didn’t vote and pray and donate hard enough so we better go even more cultish and far-right to fix it”

          Turnip: “KJMBNFLDKSJBLAAAARGHHHHH”

          News: “60% of Americans now in support of Trumps statement that KJMBNFLDKSJBLAAAARGHHHHH. And this news channel agrees. This is Kent Brockman, Channel 6, signing off, with a KJMBNFLDKSJBLAAAARGHHHHH you, Biden.”

            You’re joking, but the covfefe thing was almost more ridiculous, given they pretended it was intentional and claimed that an inside group knew exactly what he meant.
