• they won’t be able to focus that rage, it will quickly divest into the thousand little in-groups of conspiracies, backwoods nutcases screaming into the void, random nuts in trucks driving into drugstores and shooting up pizza places.

    Curious how many will assume Vance poisoned him to become president or something like that.

      It would be pretty easy to start pre-seeding this idea with memes and the like.

        Look, I’m not saying that Vance has been poisoning Trump to take over, I’m just saying we all know he’s capable of it. Of course we should wait till the investigation into Vance reports their findings before jumping to conclusions, but come on, everyone knows it’s entirely plausible.

          Look, I get that “Royal Food Tasters” were a relic of medieval days, but don’t you think the great kings of the past had them for a reason? Isn’t it curious that every time we brought it up, Vance’s team shot the idea down before Trump was even able consider it?

          It’s just things to think about, I’m not saying it’s what happened.
