I know it sounds like libstuff from 2016, but recently I have been buying into the idea that being a Maga is a legitimate mental illness. I understand it's pretty dangerous in a country with only 2 political parties to declare 50% of them invalid and insane. The older I get, the more I understand that some conservative ideas actually make sense in context. But the way Magas have fully committed their entire selves to constantly being pissed off, paranoid and ready to throw down at any second, the way they flatly deny cold reality in front of them while accusing their mortal enemies of just the same, the way they refuse to accept that what is obviously, by all accounts, according to everyone else on Earth, the absolute sleaziest and most corrupt man alive is anything less than the Christian Messiah, and the full hog, day-to-day devotion to hating literally to death anyone who isn't themselves over petty bullstuff like the current status of their rooster or lack there of. How can I interpret this as anything other than some kind of madness?
Annoying Orange blew through my county the other day. I can't say I know why. He was within 20 miles of my house and I didn't even know about it until 2 hours after he was gone. The only reason I did was because I drove through the town where he visited and it was completely deserted. No traffic anywhere, no one out. Just exactly two cop cars idling at every intersection for maybe 10 blocks. I thought maybe a terrorist threat happened until I saw the giant neon sign that said "WELCOME PRESIDENT Annoying Orange." The venue happens to be very near a discrete, rural airport which normally only deals in cargo, not passengers. They got him in to speak at a casino in some podunk mountain town for some god-forsaken reason then got him out again in under 2 hours. What is the point of these events???
