Most of all I like presidents that get shot and die
Yeah I'm a big James A. Garfield fan too
I just wanna stick both of my hands in his big wet gunshot wound and dig around.
A grazing wound isn't usually fatal, but I bet I could get it there.
Thanks, I visualized that. 
Yeah like you gotta commit to the bit at that stage
And so it begins. The libs become the based dark humor posters, and the MAGAs become the "have you no decency sir" cringe posters.
the evolution of the soy conservative continues
Mom said it's my turn to

The second party flip /j
The overtone window is shifting again
Chuds: [homeless black man gets shot in the back] GOOD. You get what you deserve for being a CRIMINAL 
Also Chuds: [someone makes in fun of the most powerful man in the world] Wow, first of all, how dare you?
It's a good bit to be a 
and do the "have you no decency sir" routine
Full body cringe at "Harrison Bergeron"
: It's a story about how Woke = Bad!

Show your face, coward!
"I'm getting a lot of questions about my profile pic that are answered by my profile pic."
People are surprisingly indifferent though. We almost had a candidate get their head blown off on live tv and people are like "well, I can't say I'm surprised 
"
It's pretty funny
On some level, I hope 
is mad that people still talk about Reagan getting shot and he couldn't even stay at the top of the news cycle for an entire afternoon when it happened to him.

Mr. Bergsom,
I'm afraid I need some sort of identification before showing a photo of myself. Would you kindly post hog so I can verify your identity?
Funny story, one time a bunch of these people were mad at Jesse Farrar, host of Your Kickstarter Sucks, for tweeting out a joke about drowning young conservatives. One angered tweet replier posted a photo of his dog's penis and told Jesse something like "Suck my dog's dick you sicko!" However, others quickly pointed out that since the dog's penis was erect, the replier must have erotically stimulated his dog by hand to ensure that its penis would be prominent enough for the photo. Upon receiving too many of these bestiality accusations, the poster quickly deleted his post.
that's some corncobbin' if i ever seen it
lol it's not even making fun of Trump and this guy is 
I'm feeling a strong Musk, Trump, Vance trifecta could really tank his numbers.
Hillbilly Elegy is the number 1 selling book currently
Bought by whom? Actual people or Super-PACs?
I find it not to wild to think everyone keeps talking about the book the next VP wrote that was publicized when it first came out and now people want to read it, but sure Pacs also could be buying it.
Books by politicians always have inflated sales, it's a (not so) backdoor way to influence them. This isn't a new thing. I'm not saying no one is buying it, just that it's a sort of meaningless statistic without more context.
The context I'm using it for is I don't think everyone hates JD Vance. I think most people know next to nothing about him. No one is going out to the polls to make sure he doesn't become the VP.
best selling books lists are known to be farcical circle jerks. Especially political nonfiction. You do a bunch of book tours with ghouls and a bunch of think tanks buy copies to artificially inflate the sales numbers, only to resell them or give them away at events, then pundit media gives you an extra boost for regular retail sales. I mean maybe some people are organically buying hillbilly elegy, but I wouldn't have ever heard of it if it weren't for the socdem podcasts like chapo cringing at it on air (which is its own form of free attention).
Yeah but to be a number one book you have to sell like 200,000 copies max
That's an open invitation to 
Whaddaya know? Temu really is shopping like a billionaire!
