      I don’t know anyone laughing though. I do know a lot of people that look at it and worry. The blatant lying, the calls to violence, the open fascism, cult like following… If this tips the wrong way, the children of the future will be learning about jan6 and what is to come like we learn about the night of the long knifes.

      The example Trump is teaching the whole world is that there are no consequences if you just double down and keep saying insane shit while throwing your weight around. And even federal judges will bend for you à

      It’s like watching a drunk gorilla in a weird dress stumbling around, doing ridiculous things while acting tough.
      It would be funny, except you’re stuck inside the room with it, it’s holding a rocket launcher, and half the people in the room with you are imitating its moves.

      It’s not funny from where I’m sitting. (On a toilet in New York)

      Fair enough. To be honest there is a lot of politics in over countries people in the US laugh about.
