      A broken clock may be forever wrong, whereas a stopped clock may be right twice per day.

    Imagine campaigning on ‘immediate relief’ and then reposting an article that screams ‘suck it up.’ Iconic failure. Missed opportunities to explore potential solutions or broader economic implications.

    Reddit is already fully onboard pushing this dumb fuck narrative, if you were doubting whether they were fully captured or not.

      Oh, I totally believe there are plenty of qon bootlickers aching to try to change the subject after little d showed himself to be a complete failure on yet another of his stupid promises.

      What’s even stupider is that he still has the support he has. I’d love to start seeing more man on the street interviews asking the redcaps if they voted FOR tariffs. If they stupidly say yes, because, hey, they are a fucking cult, I want the follow-up question to be WHY? What do they think it will really do, in the short term? Also ask them why the CHIPS program was killed, if they are so interested in American jobs…

        Yeah. I guess I always knew at some level, not that I gave it much thought in the past, that there was a chance fascism could take hold in America. But what surprises me is how friggin stupid they are. How can anyone listen to Trump talk for more than 5 minutes without their bullshit alarm going off.

      If I keep posting this every time there are egg related political news stories, maybe it’ll come true?

      I put together a little short story about how I would like to see Donald Trump meet his demise. Drowning in eggs:

      The Eggsecution.

      The once-proud leader, now stripped of title and dignity, stands in the center of the barren, concrete abyss. The abandoned Olympic swimming pool—thirty feet deep, dry as bone—has become their final stage. Above, the gathered masses stretch in every direction, a writhing sea of anticipation.

      They do not jeer. They do not boo.

      They simply chant.

      “Eggs. Eggs. Eggs.”

      It starts as a murmur, a low thrum of human voices vibrating in unison. Then it grows, swelling into a deafening roar that rattles windows, that shudders in the bones of every person present. A chant as ancient as it is absurd, a single-minded invocation of punishment.

      The first egg arcs high overhead, tracing a lazy curve before splattering against the fallen leader’s shoulder. The yolk bursts, oozing down his baggy, ugly, now-useless suit. A streak of yellow, the first of many.

      Another egg. Then another.

      Then dozens.

      The first impacts make them flinch, stagger—hands raised in a futile shield. But soon there are too many to dodge, too many to deflect. They curl inward as the sky rains viscous judgment. The chant never stops.

      “Eggs. Eggs. Eggs.”

      Shells crack. Yolk drips. The scent of sulfur and shame thickens in the stagnant air. It coats their skin, their hair, their pride, turning them into something less than human. Something… egg-like.

      At the top of the pit, a child—no older than seven—steps forward. They hold their egg with both hands, cradling it like something precious. Reverent. With a deliberate motion, they lob it downward. It strikes the leader square on the forehead, exploding with an almost musical plap. The crowd erupts into a fresh crescendo of cheers, but the chant never falters.

      “Eggs. Eggs. Eggs.”

      No escape. No reprieve. The pit is smooth concrete, slick now with raw egg and humiliation. They can do nothing but stand there, endure, become part of the ritual.

      Somewhere in the throng, a vendor hawks boiled eggs. Another sells cartons to the unprepared. A man in a chicken suit waves encouragingly at the crowd.

      The night wears on, but the spectacle does not end.

      It cannot end.

      Not until the last egg is thrown. Not until the last voice is hoarse.

      Not until the world is rid of this one, failed leader, broken not by swords or exile, but by the inescapable weight of public yolk and scorn.

      “Eggs. Eggs. Eggs.”
