….does it make a sound?
But this is basically what happened when supporters of Kari Lake — Trump bootlicker, election denier, and losing GOP candidate for governor of Arizona — staged a “rally” outside the state’s capital, attracting literally fives of people*.
From The Independent:
A small but vocal group of election deniers rallied outside the state capitol in Arizona to protest Kari Lake’s loss in the gubernatorial race against Democratic candidate Katie Hobbs.
Emphasis on small.
Twitter had much to say about the would-be coup. Hurry and read it before Mr. Musk takes it down:
The only notable “sound” emanating from the carcass of this toppled conifer — save for occasional drunken chants of freeeeee-dummmmb — is the fartlike blare of the center guy’s…..ummm…..shofar???
Given the rampant anti-Semitism that infects the mostly white and Christian MAGA movement, it’s remarkable that one of its minions would choose this moment to appropriate Jewish culture and tradition. An alpenhorn would be a more fitting choice.
Or even better — a Wagner Tuba. Rumor has it that ole Adolf was a huge fan of the eponymous German composer infamously co-opted by Elmer Fudd.
At least the wabbit hunter wasn’t an election denier. Unlike Ms. Lake, who refuses to concede the race and is challenging the results. Because of course she is.
*Actually it looks like exactly five MAGATs, including the photographer.
