And now I have “Happy Feet” in my head. Thanks, digs.
You have it backwards. Down the rabbit hole was where this thread started. Daylight is close at hand.
In two weeks.
Trumpy tweets! I’ve got those Trumpy tweets!
I throw the fans some meat
And they begin chanting!
Let me say “Big fraud!” and “Covfefe!”
And when I hold my phone I can’t control
The ranting, dear, to save my soul!
Didn’t lose! No matter what the news!
Because the news refuse
To run with my theories.
My delusion spreads confusion
Out in the street
Cause I’ve got those Trump-Trumpy tweets!
If he were smart he’d call it “Trumpet.” But we know he’s not.
snitter•com is appropriate and available – for $5K ??
It seemed to me, for a while, this thread had generalized to become a discussion of Trump’s bona-fide successors on Twitter, e.g., MTGreenee.
The imposingly-haired Matt Gaetz.
(well, recently, anyway, chirpin about Cheney - thought it was a Devo pompadour piece)
Parler is back. Oh boy. Can we expect a new stream of Parlerhhea from the Master Bathroom at Mar-a-Lago?
According to this Feb 5 Buzzfeed article*, Trump himself isn’t already on Parler, so can’t make an account until next week (if they follow their stated rules, which no one should bet on). Eric and Don Jr. do have existing accounts and no doubt will be blasting away.
The only good thing about this may be that it will help the FBI and other security agencies as they begin trying to get a handle on white-supremacist terrorist groups. No doubt there is a lot of work to accomplish after the hands-off policy of the Trump Administration years.
For some reason I’m reminded of something that a German officer told a prisoner when they set up Stalag Luft III for the Luftwaffe’s most intransigent escapers. The gist was that they intended to put all their rotten eggs in one basket — then watch that basket very carefully. Hope the FBI gets better results.
Yeah, me too. I expect there are hundreds of invitation-only Internet hidey holes for the terrorists, but for several weeks they’ve lacked any nation-wide platform for connecting with potential new recruits to fill those hidey holes. All they’ve had (unless they get lucky with Facebook laxity) has been in-person contacts–holding events or chatting up likely prospects at the local bar, etc.
So with Parler up and running again, they can rejoice in a resumption of building their army of belligerent dim-wits—even though it will now be easier for FBI plants to infiltrate the private chat rooms.
Actually, they had Von Luger (the commandant in the movie – in real life he was Von Lindeiner) say that at the beginning of the movie The Great Escape.
But I doubt if they said it in real life. Stalag Luft III wasn’t really the place where they put the worst cases. That was Kolditz Straflager (Oflag IV-C).
It was also built on solid rock, which you would think would rule out any tunneling attempts. Nevertheless, there were several impressive escapes from there, and one that was only thwarted because the prisoners were freed before they could do it.
