Perfect Leopard Eating example. She loved the idea, supported the idea, wanted the idea for her native country, then got to experience the idea personally, good and hard. No notes. ---

FYI This is the latest update in the New York Times ongoing series of interviews with trump supporters. > **[Opinion | The Economy, Immigration and Regret: 12 Trump Voters Discuss](https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/04/28/opinion/focus-group-trump-voters-disappointed.html?unlocked_article_code=1.elA.yKes.faoja8YUEdSD&smid=url-share)** > > Trump voters discuss their disappointment with the president’s second term. When asked to give the trump administration a letter grade, most of them gave him a D. Read the article for yourselves. That should be a gift link. ---

It was a gift link, @ThelmaLou . And thank you. It was quite interesting, especially when they asked the panel, “If Democrat leaders were in the room right now, and asked how to get more votes, what would you say?” ---

Holy crap, what a bunch of total morons. Their stupidity is breathtaking, even at this late date. I know we’re supposed to welcome them to our club, but I’m sorry, it has to be said…such astounding idiocy! How do they manage to breathe in and out, all day long? ---

That was depressing. I was surprised at how well-informed they seemed, I thought their bubble would have kept them in the dark on some of the things they pointed out. But good god, they’re all brainless. “He’s not actually delivering on his ridiculous promises, so we’ll vote for some other guy like JD who’s making the same ridiculous promises.” Like, they still don’t know that the Republican party can’t deliver because they’re promising impossible things? ---

The article offers a clear insight into the minds of Trump voters without all the accompanying noise. I remember there was a thread recently asking what motivates Trump or Maga voters. It didn’t get much traction, obviously, but this article lays it out clearly – for better or worse. > [@steronz](#): > > I was surprised at how well-informed they seemed, I thought their bubble would have kept them in the dark on some of the things they pointed out. I agree and was surprised too. Many of them seemed up to date on the news, but then was one guy: > “Marjorie Taylor Greene. I don’t watch the news, but the other day I turned on the news and I saw her, and I was taken back with a statement. I didn’t know that she left the House. So that was shocking to me.” * * * The entire [Times Opinion Focus Groups](https://www.nytimes.com/series/focus-groups) series looks interesting. ---

I knew a stupid guy who had TGIF written inside of his shoes. I thought, ‘He may be stupid, but at least he appreciates the prospect of an upcoming weekend.’ Then I found out he wrote TGIF in his shoes to remind himself that Toes Go In First. ---

Great news for $Trump memecoin investors, who saw values plunge 97% after the initial buy-in in Jan. 2025. There’s a new opportunity to blow even more of your dough! > **[President Trump’s $TRUMP memecoin is preparing to launch a “Coin Club”...](https://www.citationneeded.news/trump-coin-club/)** > > The website promises "elite and extraordinary experiences" as part of the newest scheme to revive a token that’s down 97% from its peak and still falling. > [@](#): > > The website has quietly introduced a signup page for a “members only, limited access” $TRUMP Coin Club, which it describes as “invitation-only luxury suites at the biggest sporting events in the world, private dinners, and the most elite and extraordinary experiences”.

Of course, the 97% decline in memecoin price is actually 600%, using Trumpian math.
