This made me fall off my chair laughing. And then scratch my head and think about how to exploit it. Help me do this, people. We may be on to something here. First, to the good stuff.
Once you’ve dusted yourself off from the floor, if you’ve got a few spare moments, let’s see if we can get the MAGA tribe to boycott the Census. Let’s call it a Democratic Thing! Let’s have AOC tweet about how How Americans Must Tell The Government Every Detail of Their Life! You know their heads will explode. The Census is SOCIALISM! It’s a TEN YEAR PLAN OMG THE HORROR.
In case you missed it, there was a kerfuffle about the US flag (“Betsy Ross”) on a shoe, and much firebreathing from the MAGA tribe. Nike had a shoe out with the flag on it, and pulled it as a product (allegedly) due to concerns expressed by Colin Kaepernick. I have no independent verification of it, other than the usual accounts in the media. But having seen the damaging false stories that have circulated about Portland in recent months from respectable mainline news organizations, I tend to disbelieve most of what I read. That said, the veracity of that isn’t the point here. It led the MAGA faithful to react, naturally, against the GRAND EVIL in BEAVERTON, OREGON. So they’re boycotting Nike, naturally. And going to a competitor. But as the old saying goes, “it gets better.”
I don’t know who this person tweeting is (accidentally came upon them for the first time today) but I am already indebted…
Have a good week, all, and be kind to one another!
