    What is insane to me is that I had to look at who wrote it to determine if it was a joke or if it could have been serious. It’s amazing how many batshit crazy things people say AND BELIEVE IN THEIR HEART. This could be a new game show:

    Serious or Satire!

    10 years ago no one would have ever thought this was anything but a joke but today… They would never run out of material! Think “Jewish Space Lasers” for example.

      They set the bar so high for dumb and insane shit to say that i feel like people stopped hearing it. Like fuck, the jewish space laser thing… Just how? In a real world someone would’ve escorted her out and be like: okay, we get it, pack your shit. But nothing. And years later, that lady is still doing it, and she still has her job.

        The laser thing, it’s just so out of this world! I actually dug deeper and and it’s somehow connected to volcanoes. They don’t actually exist, but those giant hills are actually from excavating caves for building Deep Underground Military Bases (D.U.M.B.S, you can’t make that shit up). The lasers then shoot into the hills so then you have magma and shit.

          This reads like somewhere out there, some random teenager got baked as fuck playing Missile Command and decided to troll that one asshole MAGA uncle nobody wanted to invite to Thanksgiving and things just spiraled completely out of hand.

        He probably broke a few laws right there. Maybe another president would have been held accountable for faking a wewther report and causing panic, but it was just Wednesday.

        I can’t help but think “was this guy president of a major superpower for 4 years?!” Almost every single time I see any of his videos.

          This is how I’ve felt for every president we’ve had since (and including) Clinton… Which really is only because he’s the first president I was old enough in which to be aware. I’m sure further back was just as bad in their own ways.

          Things off the top of my head:

          Clinton - sex stuff.

          Bush - Oh so many things. His bumbling… His weapons of mass destruction stuff…I mean, if they are so bad, why can we have them, but they can’t? I digress.

          Obama - Authorizing terrorist attacks on Pakistan, also the failed health care reform.

          Trump - Well… well… I honestly couldn’t much pay attention to what he was on about through the non-stop assalt he had from our media (also life stuff kept me pretty distracted those four years). But he was certainly one to rock the system.

          Biden - Wow. The Ukraine/Biden(and family) stuff, the China/Biden(and family) stuff all the stuff happening while he was a VP… His bumbling is even worse than Bush’s was.

          Yea, we’ve had a pretty embarrasing run of presidents in my lifetime. I know there are a few things Trump and Obama did in which I approve… But it’s few… Oh so few. The rest though… Nope.

          Oh, and, I’m not so sure about Clinton’s races, I was too young, but all the folks that came in second to all these presidents? Not exactly great alternatives to what we got.

          EDIT: Fix Spacing.
