Alex Jones is here in Los Angeles, isn’t he?

If he gets a war going, I’ll be looking for him FIRST.

\*[The Alex Jones Prison Planet](https://thealexjonesprisonplanet.bandcamp.com) is a tech death metal band that uses samples from Alex Jones’ Info Wars radio and TV shows as lyrics. The whole thing comes across like an updated version of Bongwater or Butthole Surfers or King Missile: absolutely insane stream of consciousness lyrics delivered with total sincerity over a musical background that is best described as scripted chaos. I spent $1 on each of their releases and I’m very happy with my purchase. 😃

Why would OPEC care if gas prices are up in the US?

Because gas prices were low during the Obama years and now that we are in the Shit Gibbon years they are going up and why aren’t you just trying to Make America Great Again? What don’t you understand? 🆒

I don’t know what he’s going on about either. They don’t teach how markets work at Wharton?

Hey, now that it’s getting on towards dusk, there are flashes of light and explosions going off all over the place. Is the civil war on, then?

In his mind, the way markets work is “Everyone loves Donald Trump’s and will do anything he says to please him, and if they don’t it’s because they’re haters and losers who are jealous of how rich and smart he is”.

We need to end this affirmative action for incompetent, silver-spoon raised kleptocrats. Everything the previous president said or did mattered. A lot. This one? A free pass on everything.

It really makes you wonder why his hatred is so fixated on people from Latin America. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if it’s finally revealed that Melania had an affair with a Latino. Personal spite seems to be Cheeto’s primary motivator after greed.

Has Trump ever mentioned the more than 1 million Asians and 600,000 Europeans who are in the country illegally? It’s always Mexicans, Mexicans, Mexicans. Or MS-13, MS-13, MS-13. I suppose the fact that he’s a racist scumbag might be the only reason.

Bullies look for people they think they can victimize. Migrants are vulnerable, and he knows his base is anti-immigrant, so he has supporters to feed his ego.

Only Country that does what? 😕

Man, we used to make fun of our Presidents who didn’t speak a second language; could you guys next time try to pick one who speakee English?..

…

… maybe that’s his problem. Most Latino immigrants speak better English after a year or two.
