      It’ll be funny and poetic until we all get to watch a contestant die for the first time during a prime time live event … and the crowd roars and the ratings go through the roof as everyone realizes … the gladiatorial games to the death have returned … and this time we can stream it!!!

    I literally did a triple-take thinking I ate the onion and then realized it’s not fake. Holy SHIT. Time for the 2A.

      “According to the Daily Mail…”

      My bs senses are tingling on this one, too. I think I’ll be watching for confirmation from elsewhere before I give this much energy.

      Edit: it’s insane that it’s even remotely believable, though. And it is believable. Like, easily believable.

    So MAGA wants to take away birthright citizenship and institute game show winner citizenship. This is the same government we’re relying on to do the right thing in a nuclear confrontation.

      I am more frightened of the Trump Regime than Stalin’s in this regard. Both are evil, but one completely is completely void of sanity.

      It is my hope that foreign governments are taking actions to take away the nuclear button from Trump. Maybe a deal with Qatar to activate the self-destruct if Trump attempts to give the order for a nuclear dawn?

        I don’t know about foreign governments - who on the US side would make those deals, given that MAGA is running the government? But our own military isn’t run by robots, and they’re prepared not to take stupid rash actions on command from Bonespurs. This was talked about when he took office the first time.

    Then they deport the winner anyway, because citizenship doesn’t matter to Trump.

    There are really people out there who support this shit who think they deserve to be regarded as good people just because they’re friendly on an interpersonal level.

    Of course the admin supports dehumanizing people for entertainment. How about reducing prices on something. Like bread.

      I remember during the zelensky ambush at the white house that DJT said it would make great TV as well.

      Clown country.
