Holy Crap..I Cannot even imagine. I do not even want to..Your description is just like the Carnival/Sideshow that sneaks into my Head. I wish I had never read this. You are One Brave Nut to go in the midst of that mess.. I wouldn't have made it far..Love the Barfing..
I don't actually know if that spectacle was more disgusting or more terrifying! To think that those people are our fellow Americans makes me want to puke too! Ugh!
Americans of the MAGA mindset are caught in the throes of an extinction burst.
Though they've won the government trifecta and have the SCOTUS in their hip pocket, they are still mad and getting madder by the day.
Regardless of how much Trump claims to achieve, regardless of their claims to be winning, they're certainly desperate to change the existing narrative.
I completely expect them to get louder and angrier, their gish gallops to be faster and more ridiculous. Their claims of Trump's greatness more absurd, their willingness to wear a diaper, a garbage bag or a maxi pad on their ears more embarrassing.
More Trump hats and flags, more threats to arrest Dems like AOC, more calls to impeach judges, more calls for a third term, more outlandish proposals like putting the Melon Felon on Mt Rushmore or to make his birthday a national holiday. More attempts to blame the rest of us for their missteps and change the narrative.
This ridiculous performative posturing comes from a position of extreme weakness.
Just like the toddler who's been told "no" will throw himself on the floor, pull his own hair and scream "I hate you" until he can't even breathe.
Just like the lab rat, used to hitting a lever for immediate food. When the lever stops providing instant gratification, does the rat immediately walk away?
Oh no. He hits that lever harder and faster, squealing his frustration, flipping around and frantically biting and pawing the lever until his feet and mouth are bleeding.
For MAGA, that's doubling down on ridiculousness when they're called out for their toxic behavior....as is happening with increasing frequency. This actually explains their increasing support for Trump and his band of misanthropes...in the face of increasing evidence of their unfitness.
Then 💥
The toddler and the rat, after exhausting themselves, both eventually realize their behavior is not going to be rewarded and they cease the tantrums and move on to more productive behaviors.
Assuming Mom and the scientist stand their ground.
Hmmm. That's a great point. I never before thought of it as an extinction burst. But MAGAsm is just that - the frustration of being denied the preferred status they've enjoyed for centuries. I don't see that this is the extinction burst after the reinforcer has been cut off, because it hasn't yet. Rather it is the tantrum from having seen that the end is nigh.
Bless you for your sacrifice 😆 I can't even watch a video of him for more than about a minute without changing the channel in disgust. I can't imagine being around that many insane cult followers at one time 🤮
Thank you for your courage. I couldn’t do it, I’d have the same reaction; hell, I can barely watch footage without my skin crawling and nausea. Again, thanks for the courage and dedication—it’s appreciated.
I don't think I would have made it past the initial smell before tossing! Of course I would never have had the courage to be there in the first place!
Here is a quote from Sarah 'Huckster' Sanders at CPAC as reported by The Guardian....“He doesn’t sleep. He doesn’t expect anyone to sleep either. He’s twice my age and has twice my energy.”
MAGAsm is an iteration of religion. The cult of the orange calf. Slavering vengeance against imagined satans. Rage against dying entitlement. A tantrum of fear converted to fury.
There probably aren’t that many substacks where one could make the following observation without being branded as a bridge too far. But, in keeping with the projectorilly vomited reaction to CP-AC, this may fit right in:
Last week, we saw the parading of the mini-me’s of M-sk and Tr-mp.
In his recent commandeering of the Oval Office, PrezEm-sk brought his tagalong, pre-processed 4-year-old organ donor, ready for harvest should his uber-pater be injured in body or brain (Like the blood vials that trail after Tr-mp, there is a Neu-ralink transfer device inside M-sk’s personal football case.).
The old man behind the desk (which the child naughtily told him to vacate), decided he was not to be outdone in the race for most inappropriate venue for a pre-schooler. So, over the weekend, Geezer Grandpa trotted out his version of cherubic prepubescence at the Daytona 500 — a sweet blond, hazel-eyed little minx in a backless sundress with one strap draped off-shoulder, eyes buried under an ivory Ma-ga hat reminiscent of the wide-brimmed frisbee sported by FLOTUS at the inauguration.
Perhaps he thought it was FLOTUS.
Their abject longings personified: one for eternal existence, the other for eternal gratification.
You are way stronger and more disciplined than I am. If I had attended this traitorous, moronic event, I would have either screamed at them for hating America so much or cried because they hate America so much. Trump is a Russian asset and the GOP is with him siding with Russia, our biggest enemy. Your comments strike at my core. Please take a breath and do something really positive for yourself-play with kittens or puppies, read a book, go for a walk, etc. Please take care of yourself.,

Outstanding work!!! I’ve heard that the Koolaid was $5 a cup.

Not all heroes wear capes. Some vomit into trash cans next to overpriced fairytale books.
My unisom just quit working. 😳
Wow! I too felt sick to my stomach reading this, you are one brave person even thinking to go there, never mind actually being there.

Who doesn't need sleep? Zombies or DRUG addicts!
Dear wonderful word-ist, please take credit! I'm a giant fan. Can't find your name anywhere.

Over my and I imagine quite a few others dead bodies. No way, no how, NO!
