Trump supporters quickly rallied to get their own brain worms to support the former President’s ongoing campaign for a second term.

Too real

Given that half of them were enthusiastically taking horse de-wormer a few years back… this is not impossible

They’re literally wearing diapers for him right now. Not only would this be possible, it’s the likely scenario.

You'd think the dewormer would have fixed it.

If only it were a problem dewormer could fix

“My brain worm was not weak and small, it was so big that Timothee fucking Chalamet could have ridden it across my brain,” said an enraged Kennedy Jr.

LMFAO

Like Trump could pronounce "Chalamet"

"said an enraged Kennedy Jr."

It's rare that a headline will actually make me laugh out loud, but this one did it.

[–] Minarble@aussie.zone 13 points 1 year ago

It’s a work of art. It ties so many threads together in an absolute masterpiece.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It didn't make me laugh because that's something trump would actually say and I thought I was reading a real quote at first. Everything about him just makes me sad.

So, reality got so fucking crazy that satire died… then it proceeded to get even crazier until satire… resurrected?

Is Trump satire Jesus? Is this (more) proof he’s the Antichrist? Because this seems like something Satan would do….

For me, satire died the day a Trump woman went on The View TV show to defend him after the pussy grabber tape came out.

After another panelist repeated the word 'pussy' over and over the Trump supporter demanded that she stop using that offensive word.

Someone should have just walked onto that stage, doused everyone in gasoline, and lit the lot of them on fire.

The service to our nation that day could never have been repaid.

Spoilers: it’s Trump, described in extreme detail— and it’s obviously everything that conservatives and extreme Christians want. Because they’re fucking disgusting lying hypocrites.

I'm not sure if you're being serious or not, but the the Antichrist was obviously supposed to be a Roman Emperor, how Christians can't figure that out is beyond me. Hell, most of the New Testament is anti-Roman propaganda from a Jewish revolutionary viewpoint.

I actually believed this, then saw the community.
