I’m not USA citizen, but I would vote for him.

It would be precisely as illegal as him becoming a felon by attacking the seat of government.

I assume my vote would count.

(This is sarcasm. I weep for the USA)

We moderates and left leaners need a department of large men in white coats carrying big nets.

And not just for the Shamen. He’s not even at the top of the list.

I would paraphrase his reaction to Christian Rock: “Don’t you realize? You’re not making Christianity better, you’re just making Rock worse!”

Do you remember a recent thread in which the OP said that the QAnon crowd would take down Trump?

I scoffed but I guess I was wrong. This will do it!

**Moderating:**

ModNudge - A gentle reminder that this has been moved to P&E, and while I won’t deny a worthy crack or two, it shouldn’t be the focus of the thread. In light of the origin and lack of any real news about the QAnon Shaman, I’m not going to fully hold this to normal P&E standards, but let’s be aware of it. Aside - @Darren_Garrison, the misspelling in the title bothers me (not as a mod, as an individual), is it okay if I correct it for you?

_This is just a guidance, not a warning. Nothing on your permanent record._

Sure. I noticed the typo, but only after the 15 minute editing window had closed.

No problem, fixed it. And title typos are easy and fast fixes, so again, no problem at for me if you flag them in the future.

If he gets the Nobel Prize for Literature for it, Trump will burst with envy.

That is why it is called demo **crazy**. Is there a Nobel for **Mad** icine? He would only get one million for it and the IRS would want a cut, but it is a start towards paying his therapy.
