They feed on it. They’re attention vampires.

They could always run to Louisiana.

Only if it’s from natural causes. In case you hadn’t figured it out sooner, he’d otherwise become a martyr. You think the Charlie Kirk stupidity is bad? Imagine how bad it world be if the cult’s object of worship was popped. Such a martyrdom would give the cult something to rally around after his end. If he dies naturally, however, the cult is FAR more likely to descend into infighting with a side of conspiracy theory, and tear itself apart as all the horrible people tried to scramble for whatever they could get by stomping on each other.

You mean gold leaf and spray paint?

That’s the least problematic result. "We all love meaty food and we know you don’t so we didn’t invite you to the Delicious Meat Showcase.’

All these folks buying gold and my apocalypse plan just involves a handle of whiskey and one bullet.

Like he hasn’t wasted enough tax money on stupid ideas.

Imagine if every gas station worker in just the city alone went in strike.

My people!

Meanwhile in the White House… LOL

Monkeys have achieved the impossible.

Obviously.

He keeps violating supreme Court laws and nobody has the balls to arrest him for it.

We need a Chris Hanson meme but for racists.

Not just a narcissist; a malignant narcissist. Which is the worst kind.
