I don’t think it was a single event - I guess boat rallies were a thing during the most recent Presidential campaign: > **[’#Dumbkirk’ Trended On Twitter After A Disastrous Trump Boat Rally](https://uproxx.com/viral/trump-boat-rallies-sinking-video-reaction/)** > > Trump has said several times that polls aren’t including boaters but after reports from some boat parades that might be a bit harder. ---

> [@teelabrown](#): > > many of which sank because they set out in unsafe conditions. As I recall it, it wasn’t that they “set out in unsafe conditions”, it’s that they **created** the unsafe conditions. The larger boats were tearing around, creating wakes that swamped a lot of the smaller boats, in an event that is _in no way_ a metaphor for their entire philosophy. ---

The Mike Lindell thing does look real now that I’ve watched more of it. Haven’t heard much from him recently. MTG, like Trump can’t keep her yap shut. “Must be on TV, all the time.” Rinse and repeat. The next one should be one of those dunk cages at carnivals. For all of them, really. It would make millions. ---

> [@veryfrank](#): > > Then there was TFG staring into the eclipse. I hate to be a downer in this anti-MAGA lovefest, but I have to call this one false. Trump did not stare into the sun. If he had, he’d be mostly, if not entirely, blind because of it. In the video I saw, he briefly glanced at the sun. Characterizing a brief glance as “staring” is disingenuous at best. ---
