FAN FAIL: Pro-Trump Mar-a-Lago protest FLOPS bigly
MAGA is finding out what happens when you blindly follow a lying criminal grifter for nearly eight years, and they really don’t like it.
They just can’t cope with the Trump truth of the over two dozen indictments handed down by a Manhattan grand jury on Wednesday, as evidenced by the full MAGA meltdown on Fox News.
Sorry, not sorry, Leningrad Lindsey.
No matter how it’s spun, Trump simply doesn’t have the same kind of public support he once had, and threats of retaliation seem empty when only a handful of die-hards show up to seethe over simple truths at a lame protest.
Both the New York City police and the Capitol Police in Washington DC are preparing for protests, with the matron of MAGA Mania, Rep. Marjorie Taylor “60 Seditious Minutes” Greene, leading the charge to create enough of a subhuman barrier so that Trump can’t actually be charged.
Shut up.

See you next Tuesday at your protest, Marge! With, like, maybe 25 of your best militia pals?

The Ever-Deflating Orange Menace’s rallies are poorly attended by the poorly educated, while the tens of people protesting outside Mar-a-Lago on Saturday in the wake of the indictments were a good indicator that there really aren’t that many MAGAts willing to get themselves hurt over some butthurt fee-fees.

I’m not saying their threats shouldn’t be taken seriously enough to take down any steel barricades anywhere, but even as MAGA threatens a New York City version of January 6th on Tuesday, it’s possible they’re relying on intimidation to do most of the work for them so they can stay in their safe spaces.
Marjorie Taylor Greene said she is going to New York with a group of MAGA clans . She is trying to pull the crap she did on Jan 6th in DC , NY is not Georgia or DC look what New Yorkers did to proud boys last week . MTG wants to go to NY … Good Luck with that , Enjoy pic.twitter.com/YiI8oxEBox

In all seriousness, I truly hope that no matter how many people actually show up on Tuesday to protest in Manahttan (where they’ll probably never even see Trump because he’ll be snuck through a back door like the coward he is), no one gets hurt.
What I care about more than letting some protestors steal my joy is that while we might not get the handcuffed perp walk we all deserve, we’re going to get A REAL MUGSHOT of Donald Trump that will permanently haunt him and his remaining cult base.
Seriously, what better visual could the Democrats come up with than this? I need to trademark my tweets somehow.
