How strange and unexpected … it seems that the chairman and co-founder of Students for Trump **[was arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon](https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/29/us/ryan-fournier-charged-assault-students-for-trump/?dicbo=v2-0Mu4Unw&iid=ob_lockedrail_longstory_pool)**. I thought everything related to Trump was always completely law-abiding! Also, in the style of his orange hero, the guy appears to wearing an animal pelt on his head. It’s a different style than the one favoured by the Orange Peril, but same general idea. The thing on top of his head looks somewhat like a deceased hedgehog. ---

I know it’s certainly something simple like a sun burn, wind burn or the like, but the photo of Mister-pistolwhip certainly -looks- like a third rate rip off Marvel’s Chameleon villain. I mean just look at it - [![](https://media.cnn.com/api/v1/images/stellar/prod/231129095712-ryan-fournier-file-2021.jpg?c=16x9&q=h_653,w_1160,c_fill/f_webp) ](https://media.cnn.com/api/v1/images/stellar/prod/231129095712-ryan-fournier-file-2021.jpg?c=16x9&q=h_653,w_1160,c_fill/f_webp) You can see the damn SEAM where he slapped on a new face in a half-assed effort! ---

I find myself curious in the, “Ooo look a traffic accident,” as to the circumstances surrounding the attack by the dead-animal-wearing-chameleon-boy. ---

There are actually two different visible seams. The one on the face is the result of the Trump-Tan Booth™, which I assume is a phenom among trumpsters. The one on top of his head is just the dead hedgehog he has lying there, no doubt for good reasons related to admiration for his hero. Another forthcoming commonality may be the world of the jail-bird that they both eventually share. ---

All I’m going to say, is he better be careful - third rate villains with paper thin stories and silly gimmicks were the natural prey of the [Scourge of the Underworld](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scourge_of_the_Underworld) in Marvel. He’d better be careful entering any bars with no name. Specifically: > Writer/editor [Mark Gruenwald](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Gruenwald) originally created the Scourge in 1985 as a plot device intended to thin the criminal population of the Marvel Universe, in particular eliminating those [supervillain](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supervillain) characters he deemed to be too minor, redundant, or ill-conceived.[[1]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scourge_of_the_Underworld#cite_note-1) Numerous other characters have used the name, often with differing motives and loyalties. I mean, he ticks all the boxes, game over man, game over! ---

From a truth today: > [@Trump](#): > > All of these Biden “Political Opponent” Lawsuits against me could have been brought 3 years ago, but the slimeballs brought them right in the middle of my very successful campaign for President. I guess he doesn’t realize that he’s saying the cases have merit (he could have been charged three years ago) and are not made-up bullshit just now invented to fuck with his run for president. He gets so wound up about it that he doesn’t even consider that he is making the opposite point of what he intended. But his fans are so stupid they won’t notice. ---

I didn’t think there were **any** lawsuits from Biden? The DOJ has two criminal cases against him, Georgia has a criminal case, and New York has a lawsuit against him. Then there are all the private lawsuits against him. But I don’t think Biden/DOJ is suing him over **anything**. ---
