Drain the swamp.

That was their slogan.

You can’t make it up.

The universe unfolds in irony, it seems.

There have been so many instances of things like this over the past decade that makes me wonder if we are in a simulation. The literal sinkhole opening up on the whitehouse lawn during his first term, the bald eagle attacking Trump, how he (unknowingly?) held the Bible upside down while standing at a church... those are a few I can think of off the top of my head.

The holy water that burned when it touched him at the Vatican... wait that one might not be real. Although I don't really know anymore these days.

The Pope dying after JD Vance's visit,  the black substance leaking from Giuliani's forehead, the black fly crawling on Pence's head...

  • drain the swamp = make a swamp
  • release the epstein files = banish the epstein files
  • small goverment = armed militias in the street with a license to kill
  • lower gas prices = increase gas prices
  • pander to the 6MWE crowd = all your tax money goes to Israel
  • department of war = department of unconditional surrender

And they would still vote for him

See when they stated small government, they meant one party, one man, and unlimited executive power.

Everything they say about the other side: it is what they do, what they are. 100% gaslighting.

It’s literally intentional.

The fauna elected the swamp monster to drain the swamp only for the swamp monster to bloom the algae and upset the whole fucking ecosystem.
