> We may need an “After Trump – a Clusterfuck in Exile” thread or something, depending on what he does and where he goes. Maybe “Remote Trump – a Clusterfuck from Prison.” Or how about “Donald Who? A Remembrance of Clusterfucks Past.”

The real clusterfuck are the conditions–created by the Republican party–which made Trump possible. Trump came along as a mascot for those conditions: a jackass putting on a new costume every day, going on stage, and performing for the suckers, so that they could make themselves believe whatever bullshit spewed from his mouth. The mascot may be officially gone, but the party will do whatever it can to keep the show going. Maybe they’ll get a new mascot. Maybe the old mascot will continue in exile–who knows.

Oh, it all becomes clear now. Trump was ahead of us all. He just misspelled covid as covfefe. He was warning us way back then.

Not sure where else to put this.

There are at least three “Pro-Trump” stores in the area.

I passed one of them today. It was open, with the inflatable Trump that has two thumbs up and a big, un-Trumpian smile on its face prominently displayed out front.

More fun on the horizon. Turns out we were right to be a little skeptical about any vaccine coming out of the Trump Cabal’s efforts.
