How hard could it be to smuggle a firecracker into a rally? 🤔

Man. Imagine being in MAGA right now. They totally backed the wrong horse, and many will never realize it.

I wonder if any of the companies that make those breakfast cereals or coffees are considering it a good thing that their products were so prominently displayed.

Wait till you see the Tic-Tac Dance (if you haven’t yet). I guarantee it will be the joke on every late-night comedy show tonight.

That might have been yesterday. His Mania all runs together now.

Elon supposedly posted this AI generated video with him and Trump dancing.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzQSQUAPUXs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzQSQUAPUXs)

ETA Funny how it says "dancing to the Bee Gees classic hit “Stayin’ Alive.” Yet it’s NOT that song. I wonder if a lawyer said “do want more legal issues?”

He was supposed to be talking about the economy. While standing in front of his own golf resort. Like the average American.

I doubt that he’s ever watched it. He probably got a list of critically acclaimed films that it would sound cultured to like, and had them all installed. I’m also sure that Mara largo has a library full of the great works of English literature all in perfect mint condition never having been opened.

I would say that promoting AI avatars of oneself is a bad idea since it runs into the uncanny valley, but these two were well into that valley even in real life.

Good acid? I rather guess it was the brown acid. Don’t take the brown acid, folks!

No, it was on little Donald Duck blotters. I suspect that meant it was from the University of Oregon.

Well guys, it seems Republicans have finally found the scandal that will rock the Democrat Ticket. They have infallible proof of an anti white, racist screed between Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

The issue? Tacos… Tim Walz doesn’t like spicy tacos and eats “White Guy Tacos” which is just beef and cheese.

“That’s OK,” Harris then added. “Do you put any flavor in it?” she asked.  
“Uh, no,” Walz responded, garnering a cackle from Harris.

But this simple exchange has sure set off the pundits at Fox News who think this is highly disrespectful to white voters!

“See, folks, it’s funny that white people hate spices! Not racist at all! Just funny!” posted The Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro.

“This isn’t cute. Walz is being used as a clown to mock White people,” said [Fox News columnist David Marcus](https://x.com/BlueBoxDave/status/1824221805873365038). If Walz doesn’t like spicy food that’s fine, but it has nothing to do with being a White guy."

“Hispanics are not tacos,” said Sen. Ted Cruz, D-Texas

(Side note, I copied the Ted Cruz quote straight from the Fox article, when did he become a Democrat?)

Ian Haworth, a conservative speaker, writer and podcast host argued that Walz’s remark would “cause riots if it was done in reverse by a Republican.”

Grabbing women by the pussy, raping them, and 24 felonies is all well and good but poking fun at a white man’s choice to eat bland food is a deal breaker!
